VYPE's Mid-Season Rankings for H-Town Girls Hoops; FB Austin holds top spot
Just like that, two months have come and gone since the preseason on the Texas high school girls basketball scene.
As teams vie for district supremacy, it's becoming clear which standouts will pose a threat once the postseason comes around in February.
To the surprise of very few, Fort Bend Austin has been up to the task among some of the best that the city has to offer, as they currently sit at the top of our rankings. The usual suspects -- Cy Springs, Summer Creek, and Pearland -- are right behind them, however.
Some of the more unexpected developments (not to the teams, I'm sure) in the year thus far include the meteoric rise of C.E. King, Katy Taylor, and Klein Collins, who have each earned a spot in our top-10.
With so much more action to come, it's time to dish out the current VYPE rankings.

TALONS OUT: No. 17 Tompkins prepared for another run at district and beyond
Tammy Ray enters her 11th season of leading the Tompkins Falcons.
Last year, the Falcons finished 28-8 overall after taking silver (13-3) in the loaded Katy district, and reaching the Regional Quarterfinals. Two starters return off that team in Riri DeLeon (Jr. G), a first-team, all-district pick, as well as Gabrielle Panter (Sr. G), a second-teamer.
Keys to success for Ray include, “staying healthy and get better every day”, while their motto is to be “Relentless” in 2024.
