In its third consecutive trip to the TAPPS 6A State Final, Parish Episcopal delivered a composed, commanding performance, pulling away from TMI Episcopal for a 62-48 victory Saturday in Waco. The triumph marked a second title in three seasons for head coach Ahmad Ajami, as the Panthers capped the winter at 21-7 overall.

Matt Powell (VYPE)
SBS fulfilled its repeat ambitions, cementing the Eagles’ status as one of the state’s premier programs — and a dominant force within the private school ranks. The 31-4 squad rolled past Grace Prep 79-56 on Saturday, securing back-to-back TAPPS 5A state championships and marking the program’s fifth all-time crown.
It’s no secret who fueled head coach Taylor Land’s Second Baptist engine. Junior guard Reese Alston continued to light up the scoreboard all season, averaging 23 points per game, while Navy-bound senior Shia Francis provided the thunder to Alston’s lightning. Both earned All-Tournament honors, joined by sophomore big man Kaiden Smith, a genuine star on the rise.

When all was said and done, All-Tournament honors were presented to junior combo guard Maley Campbell, senior Serenity Massey, and freshman Makay Campbell.
