The stars of 2024-25 Second Baptist Girls Basketball
2 — SECOND BAPTIST EAGLES
The Eagles rolled all the way to the TAPPS-5A title game in 2024 – marking the eighth appearance in program history – where they ultimately finished as the State Runner-Up with a final record of 29-10.
In H-Town private school girls hoops, SBS is the gold standard, and that’s not likely to change anytime soon. John “CH” Herndon enters year seven leading this program (153-51) and returns one starter to the squad.
Herndon will lean on the leadership of first-team, all-state selection Grace Wehring (14 ppg, 4 rpg, 3.4 spg, 2.7 apg), as well as Eloise Tackett (So. G) and Casey Krueger, to keep the tradition alive.
The Eagles will eye a seventh-straight trip to the postseason in 2025, while placing an emphasis on building the younger players up in the process.

The stars of 2024-25 The Village Girls Basketball
3 — THE VILLAGE SCHOOL VIKINGS
The Village School is coming off yet another solid season, in which they went 27-12 overall and rolled to the TAPPS-6A Final Four. The season came to an end in the State Semifinals and fourth-year head coach Jason Cantwell returns two starters off that squad.
Junior guard Shaniya Williams is back after securing a first-team, all-state selection a year ago for her remarkable efforts (17 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 3.2 apg, 2.9 spg). She was also selected to the TAPPS 6A All-State Tournament team.
Williams is joined by Cyra Narahari (So. G), who averaged roughly 8 points and 7 rebounds per contest, resulting in a second-team, all-district selection as well as an all-state honorable mention.
Beyond this duo, Cantwell is looking towards a trio of talented freshmen Toni Ademuwagun, Amanda Rossini and Nyla Singleton to step up big for the program this season. Keys to success according to Cantwell include growing on the fly with the freshmen. “The learning curve will be hard with a tough early schedule that will hopefully pay dividends when we open district play in January,” Cantwell said.

The stars of 2024-25 Episcopal Girls Basketball
4 — EPISCOPAL KNIGHTS
Episcopal finally did it.
After waiting 36 years, the Knights accomplished their mission and got to raise another SPC Girls Basketball Championship banner on the walls of their home court. EHS avenged a double-digit regular-season loss to Kinkaid in the 2024 SPC-4A Championship game to win the crown – their first title since 1988.
Gone is McDonald’s All-American Me’Arah O’Neal (Florida), the daughter of Shaquille O’Neal. So, who steps up?
All-SPC selection Rylee Poindexter (So. G) returns after earning that designation in her freshman season. Other names to watch include Ivonna Lloyd, Bella Woodcox, Berklee Lyons, Ella Voss, Claire Murray, Chloe Hollis and Kennedy Greene.
Coach Chelsea Bass will have a big senior class to lean on in 2024-25 as the Knights look to go back-to- back.
