THE RANKINGS: No. 11 - Memorial Mustangs
The Mustangs went undefeated in district play in 2024 before falling in the third round of the postseason to the Heights. Coach Stephanie Royce has the luxury of some young talent back in the dugout in 2025.
They are loaded. Senior Elise Adams is solid on the hill as the ace, while the junior class has some special pieces. Outfielders Brooke Kearns and Reese Waggoner run down balls, while Riley Cannizaro (shortstop) and Isabella Borrego hold down the infield.
Behind the plate is super sophomore Sophie Vlasak, a beast in the batter’s box. It’s going to be a fun season in the Spring Branch ISD as the red and white should run the inner city.

Some of the stars of 2024-25 Stratford Volleyball
THIS IS SPARTA: Several play-makers return for No. 17 Stratford
NO. 17 -- STRATFORD SPARTANS
Head Coach: Jenny Adcock
2023: 38-8/Area Finalists
THE SPARTANS ARE FRESH OFF A NICE 38-WIN CAMPAIGN IN 2023.
Led by ninth-year coach Jenny Adcock (175-142 at Stratford; 304 career coaching wins), Stratford brings back three starters off a team that reached the Area Round, including Sarah Hickman.
The District 17-6A and GHVCA Newcomer of the Year from last season is also a four-time USA National Team Development Program Invite and USA U-19 Team selection.
Others to remember include Audrey Cook (1st-Team, All-District, AVCA Phenom), Gwen Koss (AVCA Phenom) and Avery Kent (All-District Honorable Mention).
Keys to success, according to Adcock, are “ball control” and “offensive decisions”.
