THE JUMP: The Biggest Takeaways from the Dan Green Invitational
Some interesting storylines came out of the Dan Green Invitational in The Woodlands over the weekend.
VYPE caught up with pole vault champ Katie Schlather from The Woodlands, who jumped 12-feet. She holds the ninth-best vault in the state and is signed with Air Force.
The Woodlands Kennedy Doakes is following in her father's footsteps. Ray Doakes was a decorated high jumper in his days at Arkansas and Kennedy will jump at Kansas.
Finally, Jalan Rivers of Summer Creek was on display. He has the state's best jump at 7-feet.

Reyce Allen, Summer Creek
VYPE Preseason Rankings #2: Summer Creek
It's been a busy year for Summer Creek basketball. Coach Kenneth Coleman led his team to school history last season advancing to the Regionals Semis before falling to Bellaire. The District MVP and District Offensive MVP the past two years was Javon Jackson, who is back for his senior season.
However, he has moved on to CE King, where his father Julius Jackson has been hired as the head coach. It's not a lost cause for the 'Dogs as Coleman picked up a move-in of his own from Port Arthur Memorial. Amaree Abrams, a DI point guard with a high basketball IQ is a stud, but can he takeover where Jackson left off?
Reyce Allen is a 6-foot-4 forward, who earned first-team, all-district honors a year ago. He has a mid-range game and can protect the rim. Complementing him in the backcourt are Jaylen Johnson and Jaleen Goodman, both juniors.
