SBS' Reese Alston is VYPE's Private School Player of the Year
The Second Baptist School and St. Francis Episcopal captured their respective TAPPS State Titles this winter, hitting huge shots at the right time.
Reese Alston of Second Baptist was our VYPE Private School Player of the Year, leading the Eagles all season. The point guard is just a sophomore and has plenty more upside, which is scary to opponents.
Sebastian Williams-Adams is the city's top private school senior recruit, signing with No. 1 Auburn, while Nigel Walls is headed to SMU.
Here are the ALL-VYPE Teams for 2025.

Audiences saw Cinco Ranch cruise to yet another district title last spring, which is no small feat given the high level of competition within 19-6A. The Cougars then advanced three rounds into the postseason, before ultimately falling to Memorial in a hard-fought three-game series.
Heading into the 2025 season, coach Brett Wallace and his staff are fortunate to bring back the majority of their key players, including a trio of district first-teamers: Lucas Franco (Sr. SS), Josh Morelli (Sr. RHP), and Dylan Muniz (Jr. C). Franco, a TCU-commit, will continue to be Cinco’s most reliable hitter, after posting a .405 average with 30 RBIs last year.
Morelli, committed to Pratt CC, served as the team’s ace in 2024, finishing with a 7-3 record and an outstanding 0.97 ERA. His chemistry with Muniz, a standout catcher, will be critical to the team’s success.
When Morelli needs a break, fellow senior pitcher Jonny Blackman (2.54 ERA) is ready to step in and keep opposing hitters off balance. Furthermore, juniors Drew Tureau (OF) and Kason Ficarra (3B) round out a potent lineup that should be one of the most formidable in the area.
