What a week for H-Town Volleyball!
Pearland turned the tables in Class 6A, after toppling their district rival Dawson, which has propelled the Oilers to a potential district title. Similarly, The Woodlands defeated College Park in four sets, after falling to the Cavaliers earlier in the season, which secures the Highlanders in their district's No. 2 spot, behind a relentless Grand Oaks squad that's only tallied one loss on the season.
Not much has changed in Class 5A, with each of our top-5 winning both of their respective matchups last week. However, Montgomery and Manvel are surging at the perfect time, with only a couple of weeks remaining in the regular season.
The biggest headline in the private school scene is undoubtedly Lutheran South's 3-2 nail-biter victory over fellow TAPPS-5A title-contender FBCA. Given that these two clubs have a season-split against each other, it will be interesting to see how a potential tie-breaker will play out in the postseason. Additionally, Legacy Prep looks primed for a deep run in the playoffs.
