OFF THE DRIBBLE: The All-VYPE preseason girls basketball teams
OVER THE PAST FEW SEASONS, IT’S BECOME CLEAR THAT GIRLS BASKETBALL STANDS AMONG THE GRITTIEST ARENAS IN HOUSTON HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS.
LAST MARCH’S STATE TITLE THRILLER — CAPPED BY SUMMER CREEK’S COMEBACK VICTORY — ONLY REINFORCED THAT TRUTH.
BEYOND THE SCOREBOARD, THOUGH, THE SPORT CONTINUES TO BE DEFINED BY THE PERSONALITIES DRIVING IT FORWARD — ATHLETES WHO REPRESENT NOT JUST THEMSELVES, BUT THE COMMUNITIES THAT SHAPED THEM.
AS ANOTHER CAMPAIGN APPROACHES, WE SPOTLIGHT THE NAMES AND PROGRAMS SETTING THE STANDARD IN H-TOWN HOOPS.
HERE ARE THE CAN'T MISS KIDS IN H-TOWN.

Cy Springs' Ayla McDowell is VYPE Player of the Year for public schools
I'M LOVING IT: McDonald's All-American McDowell takes home POY; All-VYPE teams announced
Ayla McDowell of Cypress Springs was the brightest star in Greater Houston over the past several months.
The McDonald's All-American was elite her senior season, building her resume as she heads to the University of South Carolina in the fall. Her team fell just short of the State Final Four, but her legacy was already cemented.
Summer Creek took home the State trophy for the first time in school history with the help of junior Kennedy Simpson, while Hightower was loaded with stars en route to the State Finals.
Here are the All-VYPE 2025 Girls Basktetball Public School Teams.
