VYPE Postgame Interview: Ridge Point’s Jack Baker talks after a 5-2 victory over McKinney Boyd.
Panthers will play for state title on Saturday.
Cypress Creek has never been past the second round of the playoffs but that all could change in 2021. This team has the talent back to piece together a historic run.
<p>It all starts with University of Houston-commit Ja'Naiya Thomas at shortstop. In 16 games last year, Thomas hit .619 with 21 RBIs, slugging nine home runs along the way. Thomas also is a threat on the basepaths after leading the team with 13 steals a year ago. </p><p>Other key returners include Madison Battle (Texas Southern), Jordan Peno (Sam Houston State) and Delayne Moreno (University of St. Thomas). Peno hit .455 with 18 RBIs, while Battle hit .385 with 11 RBIs and five doubles last year. Moreno brings a big bat (.425) but will also be their strength in the circle after tossing 63 2/3 innings last year with 45 strikeouts. This team could be one of the biggest surprises in Houston with a solid senior group back. </p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9787720712654893" data-ad-slot="8738871937" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>

Crosby has not been past the area round since 2017, but this team could be the one to make that run again. As far as playoff appearances, this program has been four times in the last six seasons.
<p>The good thing for coach Tom Fox is he has big slugger Maggie Herdejurgen back in the fold this year after missing last season due to injury. Herdejurgen, who is committed to catch at Oklahoma State, brings a big bat to the lineup for the Cougars. Also returning is Grace Sparks, who is committed to Ole Miss. Sparks hit .520 last year as a sophomore with five home runs, three doubles, and 16 RBIs in 13 games. Sparks will also be the ace in the circle after posting an 8-1 record with a 1.11 ERA and 83 strikeouts in 56 2/3 innings pitched. </p><p>Hannah Wiggins (Temple) is another name to remember as she hit .419 last year with 16 RBIs. This is a relatively young team but has some firepower. </p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9787720712654893" data-ad-slot="8738871937" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>
