VYPE Coaches Corner: The Woodlands HS Football Coach Jim Rapp
With the Fall season here, it has officially become our busiest time of the year, given the bevy of campus-coordinated media days on our schedule.
Recently, our team traveled to The Woodlands High School for their 2024 Fall Media Day.
We spoke with TWHS Football Head Coach Jim Rapp, discussing the Highlanders' ensuing season and more.
Check out the interview below!
The stars of 2024-25 The Woodlands Volleyball
POWER IN THE SMALL: Reputation precedes No. 5 The Woodlands
NO. 5 -- THE WOODLANDS HIGHLANDERS
Head Coach: Terri Wade
2023: 33-16/Regional Quarterfinalists
THE WOODLANDS REACHED THE REGIONAL QUARTERFINALS A YEAR AGO AND FINISHED WITH 33 VICTORIES UNDER THEIR BELT.
Making the playoffs is a TWHS tradition, considering they’ve done so each year over the past two decades, while making a deep run is also part of that.
Five starters return for 10th-year coach Terri Wade (540 overall career coaching victories, 346 at The Woodlands), including Arizona State-commit Ella Lewis. The Highlanders’ outside hitter finished as an all-state selection in 2023.
University of Central Arkansas-commit Cameron McDaniel is also coming off an all-district-caliber season.
Others to watch for The Woodlands include Sasha Bespaly (MB), Abby Lewis (OH), Payton Stroud (S), Ava Gibbs (Utah State - commit) and Megan Johnson (S).
Keys to success for TWHS in 2024 include having “lots of returners, a fast offense, solid defense and the return of primary passers.”
As far as their motto – “Power in the Small” - be disciplined, the small victories, small joys and small skills all matter in the big picture, according to Wade.
