The stars of 2025-26 Klein Collins Girls Basketball
THE LAYUP LINE: No. 10 Klein Collins Tigers
No. 10 -- KLEIN COLLINS TIGERS
Klein Collins approaches this winter fresh off a 26-win campaign that saw them reach the second round of the playoffs.
Directed by ninth-year coach Tatiana Lee – who is 20 wins shy of her 200th career victory – the program aims to maintain its competitive momentum.
The Tigers retain three starters, led by District 15-6A MVP A’Niyah Harmon. The standout guard averaged 16.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.5 steals, and 2.7 assists per game last season and earned TABC All-Region honors, and is likely to repeat that effort en route to a college commitment in the near future.
Joining her is Hailey Neal (first-team, all-district), who averaged 13.3 points and 5 rebounds per game, while Marvinisha Norman, Alana Fontenot, and Ma’Ryann Jacobs round out a balanced roster.
For Lee, putting the pieces together this season means embracing “W.I.T. (Whatever It Takes) – playing with relentless energy, applying disciplined defensive pressure, executing a sharp transition offense, and staying mentally tough.”
THE RANKINGS: No. 21 - Klein Collins Tigers
Brette Reagan enters her second season leading Klein Collins. The Tigers went 18-15 a year ago and reached the Regional Quarterfinals. Reagan returns five starters off that team as the program seeks a 19th straight year of reaching the postseason in 2025.
Prairie View A&M signee Za’Riya Bell-Morris leads the way for the Tigers after hitting .390 a year ago with 11 stolen bases. She was first-team, all-district along with fellow returner Myah Barraza-Ruiz who registered a .429 on-base percentage.
Other key returners include second-team, all-district picks Devyn Davenport (.959 fielding percentage) and A’Yanni Mendiola (.325 average). Also watch out for Gabby Perez, Delmi Maldonado, Lexi Scott and Genesis Garcia as players to contribute to the Tigers’ success.
Reagan wants her team to be scrappy and gritty, mentally and physically tough, and find some camaraderie this season. If those all fall into place, the second-year coach believes they “R.I.S.E - Respect, Integrity, Selflessness, Excellence” in 2025.
