ON THE RISE: Regionals were only the beginning for No. 6 Summer Creek
No. 6 -- SUMMER CREEK BULLDOGS
In his first year at the helm, head coach Daniel Moore wasted little time making his mark on Summer Creek basketball. The Bulldogs tallied 24 wins, secured a third-place finish in the rugged 23-6A district, and advanced three rounds deep into the postseason — a statement campaign that reasserted SCHS as one of Houston’s premier programs.
At the heart of that resurgence was senior point guard Reggie Rideau, whose poise and two-way command set the tone for the Bulldogs’ identity.
The reigning 23-6A MVP averaged 15 points, 6 assists, 3 rebounds, and 2 steals per contest — production that speaks to his control of the game’s rhythm as much as his scoring touch. With a growing list of Division I suitors, Rideau enters his final season not just as a standout talent, but as the catalyst for Summer Creek’s continued rise.
A balanced supporting cast — including junior Cameron Martin (all-district honorable mention), senior Patrice Mpouli, and junior Daniel Clark — adds depth and versatility as the Bulldogs look to build on last year’s breakthrough.

WE BELONG: No. 18 CE King belongs in district conversation
No. 18 — C.E. KING PANTHERS
While Atascocita and Summer Creek have long dominated the headlines in Houston basketball, CE King has quietly emerged as a contender in the tough District 23-6A.
Under coach Damien Mobley, the Panthers made a deep postseason run last season, advancing three rounds before falling to eventual State Finalist Katy Jordan.
Several key contributors have graduated, but Darrell Bush returns to lead a young, talented squad. Sophomore guards Kaiden White, Kendric Mitchell, Jayce Arriaga, and Cire Mobley all have bright futures and will be counted on to step up quickly if CE King hopes to continue its newfound success and remain a threat in the district.
With experience, talent, and Mobley’s leadership, the Panthers are ready to show they belong among Houston’s elite.
