The South Houston area is loaded with talented athletes who give it their all in their respective fields of play.
Welcome to the VYPE Playmakers, powered by UTMB Health, where we’re highlighting five standouts of the Houston area. Here are the UTMB Athletes of the Week!
Lauren Ferguson, Lutheran South Academy Swim
LSA's Lauren Ferguson
Bradley C. Collier (VYPE)
Lutheran South Academy swim returned to the TAPPS State Finals once again, marking their fourth-consecutive appearance. In the 2022-23 campaign, the girls’ side made tremendous strides to become contenders, leading to their appearance in the State Meet. This was due to the meteoric rise of sophomore Lauren Ferguson. As the younger sister of former LSA swim star, Chase Ferguson, she is establishing herself as the future of Lady Pioneers swim. She was exceptional in the State Finals, earning silver in the 500yd Freestyle (5:29.17), and placing fourth in the 200yd Freestyle (2:02.48). With two more years to go, the sky is the limit for Ferguson.
Joshua Moore, Clear Falls Basketball

The Knights have been on a tear this Winter season. After going 24-7 in the regular season to clinch a district title (10-2), Clear Falls is in the process of making school history by advancing to the UIL Regional Semifinals. Senior guard Joshua Moore (10 PPG, 3 APG, 2 SPG), along with fellow senior Orlando Horton Jr., has been dynamic on the hardwood. With the State Tournament quickly approaching, CFHS will look to the dual-threat Moore to help guide the Knights to the promised land.
Sidne Peters, Santa Fe Softball
Santa Fe's Sidne Peters
Juan De Leon (VYPE)
Indians softball is fueled by the arm of senior RHP Sidne Peters. The two-time District 22-5A MVP was invaluable for Santa Fe in 2022, throwing for a ridiculous 0.80 ERA with a 23-5 record that featured 290 strikeouts. Furthermore, she maintained a .406 batting average, with 43 RBIs and 10 home runs. After falling to UIL 5A State Champ Lake Creek in the ‘22 Regional Finals, the University of Washington-signee will aim to change the narrative in her swan-song season at Santa Fe.
Janelle Wilson, Friendswood Softball
Friendswood's Janelle Wilson

After reaching the Regional Semifinals for the first time in sixteen years, Friendswood softball shows no signs of slowing down. The Mustangs’ roster is loaded from top to bottom, including a trusty bullpen that is led by the first-team, all-district selection Janelle Wilson. Fresh off the heels of a 2022 Spring season that saw the UNC-signee pitch for a 1.26 ERA (129 Ks), and bat for a .345 average with 26 RBIs, Wilson will be depended on to help usher Friendswood back to the playoffs as their ace on the mound.
David Ramirez, Clear Falls Baseball
Clear Falls' David Ramirez
Juan De Leon (VYPE)
Clear Falls returns to the diamond this Spring with aspirations to build upon their 2022 momentum that featured a trip to the Area Round of the UIL postseason. Sophomore LHP David Ramirez emerges as one of the stars of the Knights’ bullpen. With the experience he’s already gained with the Texas Senators, Ramirez is already committed to the University of Texas, and will seek to add to his growing list of accomplishments. He looks to push the Knights to vie for district supremacy against rival Clear Creek and beyond.

Houston Christian Girls lacrosse is experiencing a culture change which could indicate that the team is on the upswing.
The Mustangs are now being led by first-year coach Grace Munford, who expressed her enthusiasm for the new season and the opportunity to establish a foundation for the program's future.
“I’m really excited for this team,” said Munford. “We have a lot of buy-in and that’s really great to see. We’re completely building a program from the ground up, and this team will be the start of something new for the school.”

Mustangs girls lacrosse is in good hands, considering Munford has set the precedent of greatness in the program. She graduated from HCHS in 2014 and became the first player in the program to advance to the next level -- playing for Messiah University (Pennsylvania). She earned four appearances at the National Tournament in her time spent there.
With that kind of résumé under her belt, Munford intends to pass on her experiences to the next generation of women’s lacrosse players with a new culture in mind.
“We are working toward learning the game and increasing our lacrosse IQ so that these girls know their mistakes and how to adjust quickly,” she said. “My biggest focus here is for the girls to know that they are deeply cared for by those around them, myself included. We have a team identity that we live by, and we play knowing that it’s not just about the sport, but it’s about honoring God and knowing that they are truly loved on and off the field.”
Munford is confident in her team’s ability to progress throughout the season and expects that the more experienced players will be up to the challenge of creating a new identity for Houston Christian girls lacrosse moving forward.
“We have a really strong midfield bench who are all extremely talented,” Munford said. “Just to name a couple, I think that Scarlett Anne du Vigneaud (Sr. Attacker) has definitely set the pace for the team. She gets extra reps in, works hard and she’s doing a lot to lead the team. Hadleigh Helms (Jr. Mid) is another standout, who is a workhorse and has great determination to get the ball and push the attack. It’s really a dream come true to coach girls that are passionate and care deeply about the sport. It’s going to be a fun year.”
