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.
