Now that the Fall is reaching its final stages, it's time for teams to lace up for what should be another exemplary season on the soccer pitch.
In the Class 6A boys arena, Seven Lakes gears up to defend their back-to-back state championship among a ruthless gauntlet of opponents in Region III, such as district rivals Cinco Ranch and Katy Jordan, as well as Humble, Ridge Point, Kingwood, and Strake Jesuit.
Region II isn't going to be any easier, with The Woodlands, Bridgeland, College Park, and Cypress Woods back in the fold.
Meanwhile, Kingwood Park and Terry headline the 5A classification, after both advanced to their respective Regional Semis last Winter.
On the girls' side, Bridgeland looks to remedy their exit in the third round of the previous postseason, with Tomball, Tomball Memorial, The Woodlands, and Grand Oaks remaining formidable adversaries to contend with in Region II-6A.
However, Region III will be even closer, as Katy Jordan, Stratford, Seven Lakes, Ridge Point, Pearland, Houston Memorial, Summer Creek, and Tompkins having something to prove in 2025.
Kingwood Park sits at the No.1 spot in the girls' field of play, as well. But, Lake Creek, Friendswood, and Santa Fe could have something to say about that in the coming months.
