Strake Jesuit climbs back into the rankings
THE LIST: Strake Jesuit, Klein Oak make way into VYPE Rankings
After a sluggish start to the season, Strake Jesuit and Klein Oak have found their rhythm — and their way back into the VYPE Class 6A Top 25.
Under the leadership of RB John Hebert, the Crusaders have caught fire in district play, while Panther quarterback Andre Phillip has powered Klein Oak’s resurgence. Oak’s thrilling victory over Klein last week was an instant classic and cemented their return to the city’s elite.
Elsewhere across Houston, Magnolia bounced back in emphatic fashion, dismantling Top 10 Tomball in a pivotal district showdown. Meanwhile, North Shore continued its dominance over Atascocita, once again claiming bragging rights in the area’s most heated rivalry — and now turns its attention to a massive clash with CE King this week.
In Class 5A, Santa Fe has reentered the conversation with a strong stretch of play, while in the private school ranks, Kinkaid made a statement with a big win over The John Cooper School.
The playoff picture is starting to take shape — and a few familiar names are finding their form just in time.
Here are this week’s updated VYPE Houston Rankings.

College Park takes down The Woodlands in instant classic
THE RANKINGS: College Park, Katy continuing to trend in VYPE Top 25
In the VYPE Game of the Week, College Park all but secured its district crown with a statement win over The Woodlands—a program that had long dominated the crosstown rivalry.
Under coach Kyle Coats, the Cavaliers have emerged as one of the most complete teams in Greater Houston. With dynamic playmakers on the perimeter, steady quarterback play, and a disciplined defense, College Park is proving it belongs in the conversation among the region’s best. The small 6A program has become a legitimate postseason threat.
Elsewhere, the Big Four of District 23-6A—North Shore, CE King, Summer Creek, and Atascocita—all flexed their muscle over the weekend. The Eagles’ win over Kingwood likely solidified their playoff standing, while North Shore and CE King continued their dominant runs.
In District 19-6A, No. 9 Katy continued to roll, staying unbeaten in league play with a win over Jordan. No. 12 Bridgeland knocked Waller out of the Top 25 after a decisive victory.
On the coast, Clear Falls jumps into the Top 25 after a 14-point win over No. 15 Clear Springs, while Shadow Creekreclaims the No. 25 spot after a solid bounce-back performance.
In Class 5A, the rankings held mostly steady, though West Fork (loss to PNG) and Dayton (loss to Huntsville) slipped. Fort Bend Marshall re-enters the Top 10, continuing its climb after early-season adversity.
The private school ranks remained unchanged, with top programs holding serve across the board.
With most teams past their bye weeks, the stage is set for a furious race to the regular-season finish line—and district titles, playoff positioning, and bragging rights all hanging in the balance.
