THE RANKINGS: No. 10 - Pearland Dawson Eagles
The 2024 season was one that saw Pearland Dawson amass 20 wins and reach the playoffs. But third-year coach Chelsea Festervand is ready to make a run with this squad as she returns six starters off last year’s team including Miami University (Ohio)-commit Evey Dieudonne.
Other key returners include Elena Luna (Alvin CC-commit) and Peyton Travis (St. Mary’s University-commit). Pearland Dawson also brings back first-team, all-district picks Caroline Roth and Katy Hollier along with second-teamers Carissa Anaya, Elena Laney and Chloe Prince.
Challenging and supporting each other will be the keys to success for Festervand’s team in 2025 as they seek an eight-year streak of playoff appearances.

NO. 8 -- PEARLAND DAWSON EAGLES
Head Coach: Lauren Leth
2023: 38-10/Regional Semifinalists
PERENNIAL PLAYOFF CONTENDERS. THAT IS THE SIMPLEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THE EAGLES OF PEARLAND DAWSON.
Lauren Leth has this program churning every single season and with four starters returning off a 38-win team that went four rounds deep in the 2023 postseason, this year should be no different.
First-team, all-district middle blocker Kennedy Jones (Army-commit) returns after being selected for the TGCA All-Star team a year ago. Jones finished with 279 kills, 79 blocks and a .375 hitting percentage.
Also selected to the first-team, all-district was middle blocker Keaton Points (184 kills, 98 blocks, .306 hitting percentage) and defensive specialist Jenna Thedford (451 digs).
Other players to watch include Northwestern State-commit Emmarie McFarland (209 kills, 160 digs) and Isabella Tijerina (218 serving aces).
Keys to success include solid defense, dynamic middles and team chemistry, according to Leth.
