2022-23 Episcopal Knights Softball
DOMINANT PERFORMANCE: Episcopal reigns supreme in SPC Championship weekend
The 2022-23 school year has further proven what a juggernaut the Houston Episcopal athletics program is in the Southwest Preparatory Conference.
The Knights recently emerged as SPC 4A champions in Soccer this Winter, setting up for a banner Spring season.
Boys track led it off, winning SPC by racking up 213 points -- over 100 points more than Kinkaid. The relays pushed the Knights over the top.

On the baseball side of the diamond, Episcopal had dominated in a similar fashion this Spring.

Prior to the season, Episcopal was eager for a chance to flip the script after falling to Kinkaid in the title game a year prior. Evidently, the Knights were given that exact opportunity.
Episcopal's Adam KatzBradley C. Collier (VYPE)
Headlined by seniors Adam Katz (P/1B) and Andrew Thorton (3B), paired with the likes of Ashton Lassiter, Logan Phillips and Ty Blevins, EHS was a force to be reckoned with. They were 22-11-1 overall. Episcopal has won two of the last three SPC Titles and have 16 titles in school history.

The playoffs were made especially sweet for Episcopal, considering they had their revenge game against Kinkaid in the SPC Semifinals (2-1 victory), before subsequently trouncing Houston Christian 13-0 in the title game.

2022: 18-9 (SPC Champions)
Coach: Caitlyn Cain
Here come the champs… again. Haven’t we written this story before? Episcopal enters the 2023 season as the reigning Southwest Preparatory Conference (SPC) Champions. It was their fifth-straight crown in 2022 and the 20th overall in program history. Both of those marks are SPC records. And they have the firepower back to do it again. The group is led by Florida-commit Townsen Thomas and New Mexico-commit Allie Williams, who led the team with 34 RBIs and six homers a year ago. Other key returners include Emma Peirot (24 RBIs, 8 2B, 4 3B), Kate Hale and Gianna Lewis. This team has the pieces to go grab another SPC crown in 2023. They defeated St. John’s in the SPC Title game a year ago, it could be another rematch again this season.
