Whataburger Team of the Week: Kinkaid GBB Repeats as SPC 4A Champion
Dynasty talk is no longer premature at The Kinkaid School — it’s earned. A 30-5 campaign culminated in a 65-57 win over Houston Christian on Valentine’s Day, sealing consecutive SPC-4A titles and adding another defining chapter to the program’s legacy. The triumph marked Kinkaid’s 12th overall championship and its fifth since 2017, further evidence that this is a standard sustained over time, not a spike in success.
The engine behind the repeat was a poised and prolific junior class. Ma’Ryiah Alfred, Lauren Hull, Sydney Marshall, Kamdyn Flora, Alexandra Gordon and Victoria Walden anchored the effort with versatility and late-game composure, consistently delivering when postseason margins tightened. Their cohesion transformed lofty expectations into tangible results.
Guided by head coach Stacey Marshall, the Lady Falcons have blended experience with urgency — a balance that has defined this era. And with that core expected back next winter, continuity becomes the program’s greatest asset.
