Jamie Wright (VYPE)
No. 17--Kingwood Park Panthers Softball
2022: 28-13 (Area Round Finalists)
HC: Kelsie McEachern
The Kingwood Park Panthers made some noise in Class 5A last season, finishing second in district and winning a playoff game.
So, what will coach Kelsie McEachern do for an encore?
The Panthers are led by seniors Hannah Leierer (Campbell) on the mound and Peyton Cote (Oklahoma Wesleyan) at the plate. Behind the dish will be Taylor Crawford, while Bailey Kee will patrol the outfield and align the infield.
One of the corner spots will be manned by Abbey Papadimitriou, who is a budding sophomore.

2022-23 Barbers Hill Baseball
No. 21--Barbers Hill Eagles Baseball
2022: 24-9 (Bi-District Finalists)
HC: David Denny
The Eagles enjoyed an impressive 2022 season, finishing with a 24-9 record to punch their ticket to the postseason. That would be great for any other program, but we are talking about Barbers Hill – the 2021 Class 5A State Champions.
Although they fell to La Porte in the Bi-District round, Barbers Hill can learn from being bounced early in the postseason. Head coach David Denny will have plenty of talented athletes to work with, particularly seniors SS Jace Martinez (SHSU-signee), CF Carson Garrett (Tarleton State), catcher Gage Kimble (Odessa), and RHP Briley Van (Hill College).
After moving to District 17-5A, Barbers Hill will look to become the new bullies of the division in hopes to continue their growing streak of playoff berths.

2022-23 Alvin High School Softball
Bradley C. Collier (VYPE)
No. 18--Alvin Yellowjackets Softball
2022: 24-12 (Area Round Finalists)
HC: Kelly Bembry
The Yellowjackets may be under a new head coach in 2023, but a familiar face in the Alvin community as Kelly Bembry returns home after starting the program and being the head coach at Shadow Creek from 2016-2022.
After serving as a varsity assistant at Alvin from 2002-2016, Bembry comes back to Alvin with seven starters returning off a 24-win team in 2022. Texas A&M-commit Reagan Jones will be one of the stars to watch along with Kiley Huffman (Texas Tech), Matti Matthews (North Texas), and Veronica Harrison (Lamar).
Other names to remember include Abby Ptak and Jocelyn Briseno. Key to success in 2023 - “Being defensively sound and a powerhouse at the plate. Our pitching needs to keep us in games long enough for us to score runs,” Bembry said.
