Sean Carter -- Clear Springs Football
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
Winners of five straight since a season-opening loss to Ridge Point, Clear Springs has found momentum behind a balanced offense with big-play potential. At the center of that surge is senior wideout Sean Carter, whose efficiency and versatility have helped set the tone.
Through six games, Carter has totaled 514 receiving yards on 21 catches — an average of roughly 86 yards per contest — and scored five touchdowns. He’s also returned a kickoff for a score, making him the Chargers’ leading individual scorer and one of their most dynamic threats in space.
Carter earned second-team, all-district honors as a junior, but his performance this fall suggests a leap forward — not just in production, but in impact. His presence stretches defenses and opens up opportunities across the field, a factor that could be pivotal as the Chargers prepare for a home matchup against Clear Falls.
If he keeps this pace, postseason honors won’t be far behind.
Ja'Maurey Champion -- Pearland Football
Matthew Ogle (VYPE)
In a hard-fought 17–13 victory over rival Dawson, senior running back Ja’Maurey Champion delivered when Pearland needed him most. Champion punched in two touchdowns in the 12th annual Pear Bowl — a performance that not only proved decisive but also emblematic of his standout senior campaign.
With the win, Pearland pushed its record to 6–0 on the season, and Champion now sits well above 800 rushing yards with 13 scores. His blend of vision, burst, and toughness continues to anchor the Oilers’ offensive identity, especially behind a consistently productive offensive line.
But Pearland’s unbeaten run has been more than a one-man show. The defense, led by Kansas commit Joseph Credit at linebacker, and senior edge rushers Jaylen Stewart and Amari Wilks — plus junior defensive lineman DeMarco Jenkins — has been just as critical in shaping the team’s success.
With Champion leading the ground game and balance across the board, head coach BJ Gotte’s squad appears built not just to contend — but to last.
Tamarria Mitchell -- Shadow Creek Volleyball
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
Collectively, Shadow Creek has continued to flourish throughout the fall despite the litany of injuries suffered in the early stages. With only a handful of regular-season matches remaining, the Sharks sit comfortably in third place in District 22-6A, holding a 24–14 overall record — including a 9–3 mark in district play.
One of the more notable developments has been the grit and consistency shown by junior outside Tamarria Mitchell. Emerging as this year’s marquee weapon for head coach Whitney Daniel, Mitchell has tallied a whopping 374 kills, 274 digs, and 478 serve receptions in 2025 — showcasing her all-around impact in nearly every phase of play.
While Shadow Creek still needs to maintain its composure through the final stretch, a postseason berth is well within reach. And with Mitchell continuing to set the tone on the court, the Sharks appear poised to make their presence felt when it matters most.
Kaleb Jammer -- Angleton Football
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
At 5–0, Angleton has looked every bit the contender it was billed to be, steamrolling district opponents and positioning itself as a front-runner in 11-5A-D1.
While the scoreboard has tilted heavily in their favor — including dominant wins over Porter and Pasadena — the Wildcats have also shown the kind of offensive depth and defensive discipline that fuels extensive stays in the postseason.
One of the key drivers of that balance has been Kaleb Jammer, whose ability to impact the game in multiple phases has added a multifaceted edge to an already well-rounded squad. After five games, the senior wideout has compiled over 500 all-purpose yards and leads the team with eight touchdowns — a testament to both his efficiency and explosiveness.
Still, the season’s defining moments likely lie ahead. A Halloween showdown at La Porte looms large in the district title race, and with memories of last year’s State Semifinal run still fresh, Angleton’s ambitions remain high — especially with playmakers like Jammer continuing to deliver.
Aniston Collins -- Lutheran South Academy Volleyball
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
Coming off a 2024 campaign in which she earned first-team, all-district honors and an all-state honorable mention, senior Aniston Collins has remained a cornerstone for the Lutheran South Academy program.
While much of the spotlight in recent seasons has centered on standout Kirra Musgrove — now at Texas A&M — and her younger sister, Addison Musgrove (So. OH), Collins has quietly and persistently delivered. That trend has only continued this fall.
A versatile presence who shifts between setter and right side, the senior has backed up her impact with a strong stat line: 353 assists, 244 kills, and 143 digs. Her ability to contribute across the court has been crucial for the Pioneers’ balanced attack.
Before taking her talents to Stephen F. Austin next year, Collins will look to help lead LSA on a postseason run — with a TAPPS 5A State title still very much a possibility.

Here are the UTMB Athletes of the Week, as we progress through the opening stages of the Fall season.
...
Britney Solomon -- Pearland Volleyball
Doug Brown (VYPE)
With the departure of District MVP Kimanni Rugley to graduation and the transfer of first-teamer Avery Koonsen to rival Dawson, Pearland’s offensive identity faced a reset entering this season. Junior outside hitter Britney Solomon has wasted no time filling the void.
Solomon has emerged as a dynamic all-around presence for the Lady Oilers, already tallying nearly 120 kills while also leading the team in both receptions (184) and digs (89). Her ability to impact the game from multiple areas of the court has been essential as Pearland navigates its early schedule with a 9-8 mark.
Now, with district play looming, the challenge only grows. Matchups against perennial contenders like Dawson, Shadow Creek, and Manvel will test Pearland’s retooled lineup — but Solomon’s poise and production give the Oilers a steady foundation.
Still just a junior, Solomon is proving to be more than a stopgap solution. She’s becoming the centerpiece of a program in transition.
Caylee Young -- Clear Springs Volleyball
Bradley C. Collier (VYPE)
Some players elevate a team. Others help define it. For Clear Springs, junior outside hitter Caylee Young increasingly feels like both.
Coming off a standout sophomore season — where she led the Chargers in kills (496) and receptions (676), and added 345 digs — Young was named first-team, all-district and recently committed to Texas Tech as of June. But she’s not coasting on past success.8
Just a few weeks into the new season, Young is already trending toward an even bigger year, positioning herself as a potential District 24-6A MVP candidate.
She’s also helped guide Clear Springs to a strong 11–2 start, including a third-place finish at the prestigious John Turner Classic – a competition in which Young was named to the All-Tournament team.
Some of the most critical wins for the Chargers, thus far, include ones over Harlan, Lake Travis, Friendswood, Atascocita, and Pearland — programs known for their pedigree.
Steady, explosive, and still evolving, Young’s presence gives the Chargers more than just numbers. She gives them an edge.
Isabella Law -- Shadow Creek Volleyball
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
As the setter — and de facto “quarterback” — of the Shadow Creek offense, senior Isabella Law is the kind of player whose value often extends beyond the box score. But even the numbers are hard to ignore.
In 2024, Law put together a staggering stat line: 1,341 assists, 410 digs, 87 aces, and 76 kills. Now in her final season, she’s taken on even greater importance for a Sharks squad navigating early injuries and a tough 22-6A slate.
It’s no secret that Shadow Creek made program history last fall by reaching the Regional Final for the first time ever. Their 6–5 start to 2025 might seem slightly more modest, but it comes with signs of promise — most notably a silver finish at the Dickinson Tournament this past weekend.
With district tests looming against powerhouses like Dawson and Manvel, Law’s leadership and consistency will be vital. And if her track record is any indication, Shadow Creek’s chances of another postseason run remain firmly intact.
Addison Musgrove -- Lutheran South Academy Volleyball
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
For Lutheran South Academy, sophomore Addison Musgrove isn’t just following in the footsteps of her older sister, Kirra — a former LSA standout now at Texas A&M — she’s carving out a reputation of her own.
Listed as a setter, Musgrove has proven to be far more than that. Her all-around impact is already showing through a stat line that includes team-leading marks in both kills (73) and assists (132), along with 52 digs — a reflection of her versatility and court awareness.
As a freshman, Musgrove earned District Newcomer of the Year and second-team all-state honors. Now, she’s building on that momentum, helping the Pioneers to a 9–1 start to the 2025 season.
With their sights set on surpassing last year’s TAPPS 5A Regional Final appearance, LSA is leaning on its depth, talent — and the poise of a young standout already playing well beyond her years.
Amelie Webb -- Clear Lake Volleyball
Bradley C. Collier (VYPE)
Clear Lake is off to a promising start this fall, opening the season at 6–3 with quality wins over George Ranch, Bellaire, and La Porte. At the heart of it all is senior Amelie Webb, whose all-around ability continues to be a steady force for the Falcons.
A setter-outside hitter hybrid, Webb’s versatility makes her one of the most valuable players on the floor. So far, she’s tallied 73 assists, 59 digs, and 50 kills — a well-rounded set of numbers that speaks to her adaptability.
After just missing the postseason in 2024, Clear Lake is eyeing a return to the playoff picture — and Webb’s consistency will be key in navigating a competitive district slate that includes matchups with Clear Springs, Deer Park, Clear Falls, and Clear Creek.
As the schedule intensifies, so too will the spotlight on Webb, along with teammates Peyton Aldridge (Sr. S), Landry Youngdahl (Jr. OH), and Natalie Herlambang (Jr. L) — leaders whose contributions continue to shape the Falcons’ identity on both sides of the ball.
