"WE WILL": No. 2 Shadow Creek features an excess of star-power to see out a likely playoff run
2 -- SHADOW CREEK SHARKS
Shadow Creek (31-3) was one of the most dominant squads around in the 2023 regular season, as they would go on to make their seventh consecutive playoff appearance.
Although they were eliminated in the Area Round, at the hands of a formidable West Brook team, the fact that a significant portion of their stars are returning bodes well for the Sharks.
Eighth-year coach David President will lean on the veteran leadership – particularly from District MVP Michael Collins (Sr. PG / 21 ppg) – to elevate the entire roster, while placing an emphasis on staying healthy.
Aiden Law moves over from St. Francis Episcopal (TAPPS-4A State Champs) to further bolster SCHS, paired with Julian Cuillier (first-team, all-district), Adin Lewis (second-team), and senior guard Bryce Jackson (Houston-commit), who returns after two years of injury.
The motto in 2024 is “WE WILL”.
All things considered it appears that Shadow Creek will be even deadlier.

CIRCLING OPPONENTS: No. 24 Shadow Creek smelling blood in the water
24 -- SHADOW CREEK SHARKS
Under the direction of coach LaToya Micheaux, Shadow Creek achieved an impressive record of 23-13 (9-3 in district) a year ago, which was highlighted by a postseason that saw them advance to the Regional Quarterfinals.
While they were defeated by eventual State Semifinalist Summer Creek in the third round, and their top scorer Krislyn Biscette graduated, there is still plenty of cause for optimism heading into the new year.
In terms of returning talent, junior Da’Niyah Lewis (9.8 ppg, 2.6 apg, 1.7 spg) and senior Zoe Senganya (5.9 ppg, 1.2 spg) will lead the pack, while Gianna Gentry (Sr. G), Preston Young (Sr. C) and Aliyah Woodward (So. G) take on bigger roles.
Defense has been a strong-suit for the Sharks over the past few seasons, and it will be critical for them to execute when facing district counterparts Pearland and Manvel this winter.
