TAPPS 6A
Village School vs Bishop Lynch FRIDAY 5:30 pm @ A&M Consolidated HS
Jada Malone Jada Malone 6'3" | PF The Village School | 2021 State #30 Nation TX (Village School), my 2021 #1 in Texas dropped 20 against St Agnes to help lead her team here. The Texas A&M signee has plenty of help as they try and defend their state title starting with Tymberlin Criswell Tymberlin Criswell 5'8" | CG The Village | 2021 State TX (SMU) and 5’6 G Aiken Semones (Hardin Simmons). Criswell ran the 1 efficiently and finished with 12 points and 5 steals but back-to-back threes from Semones helped spark a 14-0 run that just about sealed the victory. Sydney Ward Sydney Ward 6'0" | SF The Village School | 2022 State TX scored 10 points while RyLee Grays RyLee Grays 6'3" | PF The Village School | 2023 State #17 Nation TX added 6 to go with 10 rebounds
Bishop Lynch has some firepower, I caught them against Desoto, who btw will be playing against Cy Creek for the UIL 6A State Championship tomorrow night and TCU signee Paige Bradley Paige Bradley 5'9" | SG Bishop Lynch | 2021 State #95 Nation TX went completely off, that’s what she does and she’ll be joined by one of the top players in 2022, Madison Cockrell Madison Cockrell 5'8" | PG Bishop Lynch | 2022 State TX as well as 6’0 P Victoria Jordan who left a lasting impression
TAPPS 5A
Second Baptist vs Southwest Christian (Fort Worth) FRIDAY 6 pm @ College Station HS
Second Baptist advances to play in the state championship game with 5’6 G Olivia Sauvageau going completely off with 23 points. She was so impressive during the club season and equally impressive in their game that I caught against Houston Christian that she will be added to the updated 2024 rankings coming out next week, after mani-pedi Wednesday. Haven’t seen SWC but I know twins 5’6 G Ariele Rosbourough and 5’7 Arieona Rosborough Arieona Rosborough 5'8" | SG SW Christian | 2021 State TX who are explosive, to say the least
TAPPS 4A
Legacy Prep vs Lubbock Christian or Lubbock Trinity SATURDAY 3:30 pm @ A&M Consolidated
I’m heading into this one not knowing any of the players, I do know Legacy Prep is ranked #6 and they will either face #! Lubbock Christian or #3 Lubbock Trinity however I’m a fast learner
