AWARD SZN: 2024 All-VYPE Softball Teams powered by Houston Methodist Orthopedics & Sports Medicine
Additionally, programs such as Katy, Lake Creek, Heights, Bridgeland, Brazoswood, Foster, Oak Ridge, and Barbers Hill were among the plethora of Houston-area teams to have extended playoff runs over the past few weeks.
The Episcopal Knights claimed their seventh-consecutive SPC championship to further solidify their dynasty-status, while St. Agnes Academy ultimately took home the TAPPS-D1 title, which marked the first time they've done so since 2019.
Other teams of note within the private school sector include Cypress Christian, Kinkaid, FBCA, Concordia Lutheran, John Cooper, TWCA, Lutheran South Academy, Houston Christian, and St. Pius X.
Given all that information, here are the 2024 All-VYPE Softball Teams presented by Houston Methodist Orthopedics & Sports Medicine.

STACKING UP: VYPE's Updated Softball Rankings as playoffs approach
In Class 6A, not much has changed in terms of the overall rankings, since the mid-season point.
Katy, Pearland, and Oak Ridge are locked in as potential state contenders, along with Bridgeland, who has surged to reclaim the top spot in District 16-6A. Also look for clubs such as Kingwood, Alvin, Brazoswood, Deer Park, Langham Creek, and Dawson to make substantial runs in the coming weeks.
Class 5A is still being dominated by Barbers Hill and Lake Creek, while Angleton, Crosby, Manvel, and Foster are among the programs in hot pursuit. Don't sleep on Kingwood Park, Fulshear, or Friendswood either.
On the private school scene, Episcopal remains the SPC-favorite with Houston Christian right on their heels. FBCA has made considerable strides in TAPPS-II following a thrilling series against Lutheran South. Additionally, St. Agnes, TWCA and St. Pius X continue to perform under pressure.
With the playoffs on the horizon, it's time to dole out the final regular season softball rankings.
