BASES LOADED: State-appearance could be in the cards for No. 4 Lake Creek
No. 4 -- Lake Creek Lions
2023: 27-11 (Finished 2nd in District 21-5A/Region III Finalist)
The Lions reached the fifth round of the playoffs for the second-consecutive season in 2023, despite being one of the newest programs on this list.
That speaks volumes about the culture that coach Jeremy Schramm has established within Lake Creek Baseball.
It shouldn’t be a stretch to assume that audiences see a similar, if not better result this year.
Arkansas-commit Sam Lee, Parker Smith (Louisiana-Lafayette), Wyatt Davis (Houston Christian), Austin Wiederhold, and Leighton Scott all return for LCHS, which bodes well for Class 5A powerhouse.

PLAY BALL: No. 2 Lake Creek reloading in 3... 2... 1...
No. 2 Lake Creek Lions
The Lions have been the premiere program in the State of Texas the past few years.
The last two, Lake Creek has hoisted the trophy at the end as State Champions. But this will be a slightly different looking team.
Ava Brown – the Gatorade Female Player of the Year – is off to Florida and Maddie McKee is off to LSU. Coach Michelle Rochinski stepped down to spend more time with family.
So, enter Candyce Carter as the new leader of the den, which still has plenty of talent from the 44-1 Class 5A State Championship a year ago.
Carmen Uribe (University of Central Arkansas), Chesney Davis (Texas State), Alyson Higginbotham (Tarleton State University) and Bella Battaglia (Louisiana College) are all back. Uribe, Higginbotham, Piper White and Madalyn Davis were all named to the UIL All-State Tournament Team along with a plethora of other awards.
The key to success for Carter’s crew as they look to defend the crown is “being intentional with the things we do, focusing on what we can control, and prioritizing the importance of mental strength.”
