THE WRAP: 2026 SPC Spring Championships Recap — Episcopal Dominates Across the Board
4A SOFTBALL -- Episcopal captures its ninth straight championship
Matt Powell (VYPE)
Champions are anything but predetermined over the course of a long season. Still, under head coach Caitlyn Cain, Episcopal has often made winning it all feel inevitable—and this spring proved no different.
The Lady Knights once again found themselves hoisting the SPC 4A trophy this past Saturday, defeating familiar foe St. John’s, 2-1. In addition to capping the season with an impressive 26-6 record, Episcopal secured its ninth consecutive championship and 24th overall.
All-SPC nominations are still pending, but the team’s star power is no mystery. From Sacramento State signee Jordan Bey (Sr. LHP) and Memphis commit Alexis Johnson (Jr. OF) to Hayleigh Hubbard (Jr. SS), Addison Conner (Sr. 1B), Elliot Loper (Sr. OF), and senior catcher Claire Johnson, this roster was loaded.
Fittingly, it served as the perfect sendoff for Cain’s legendary tenure at EHS, as she and her family prepare to relocate to Raleigh, North Carolina, at the end of the school year.

Everything seemed to fall into place for Episcopal (22-7) this spring. The Knights not only stayed healthy for much of the campaign, but their depth and balanced lineup consistently overwhelmed opponents.
That edge was most evident in the postseason, where they dispatched Houston Christian, 13-3, in the Semifinals before trouncing The Kinkaid School, 11-1, in Saturday’s SPC 4A Championship—flipping the script on a Falcons squad that won in last year’s Final.
In doing so, head coach Matt Fox and company obtained their first title since 2023, as well as the program’s 17th all-time.
TRACK & FIELD -- Episcopal sweeps 4A / John Cooper & Awty International take 3A
2025-2026 Episcopal Boys Track & Field
The SPC Spring Championships track & field portion ended with familiar names at the top, as both Episcopal teams captured first place at The Awty International School this past weekend. The wins secured the boys’ fourth consecutive title and the girls’ third—all in head coach Isaiah Coleman’s final season before transitioning into an administrative role at EHS, where assistant coach Jeremy Eddington will take over.
Behind Episcopal in the 4A standings were second-place finishes from The Kinkaid School (boys) and The Hockaday School (girls).
At the same venue, The John Cooper School boys broke through for their first SPC 3A title, surpassing Fort Worth Country Day. Meanwhile, the Awty International Lady Rams made the most of their home track, capturing the 3A crown as John Cooper finished runner-up in the girls’ field.

Sr. RHP/OF Millie Metz of the Houston Christian Mustangs
THE AMAZIN’ METZ: Houston Christian pitcher Millie Metz sets team single-game strikeout record
For Metz, the milestone wasn’t something she was actively chasing in the moment—it simply unfolded.
“I didn’t even know I had broken it until our manager told me,” Metz said. “I was really excited after, especially since this is my last season. I didn’t think I’d ever beat it.”
Jamey Wright (VYPE)
That understated reaction reflects the same steady mindset she carries into the circle. Rather than relying purely on velocity, Metz has honed a more nuanced approach to pitching—one built around movement and control.
“I focus more on spin than speed,” she said. “That takes up most of my training. And I really prioritize rest to give my arm a break—that’s something people don’t always think about in softball.”
That attention to detail has become even more important in her senior campaign. After Houston Christian graduated six seniors last season, Metz has taken on a larger role—both statistically and as a tone-setter.
“In previous years, I relied more on my defense,” she said. “This year, I’ve had to focus on making it harder for batters to put the ball in play.”
Her growth hasn’t come in isolation. Metz credits Houston Christian’s program for shaping her development, particularly in areas that extend beyond the stat sheet.
“The team has taught me what it means to be a leader,” she said. “And the girls know how to keep the game relaxed—it’s brought a lot of fun back into the sport for me this year.”
2025-26 Houston Christian HS SoftballJamey Wright (VYPE)
As the Mustangs (8–7 overall, 2–0 in SPC play) look ahead, that balance of focus and ease could prove pivotal. Metz believes the pieces are in place for a strong postseason push, with only minor refinements standing in the way.
“We can be tough competition at SPC,” she said. “If we clean up the little details, I think we’ll be hard to beat.”
For Metz, the record-setting performance is both a personal milestone and a glimpse of what’s still possible in her final season—proof that even the highest marks can be exceeded when preparation meets opportunity.
