No. 3 -- JORDAN WARRIORS
Last winter marked a defining chapter for Katy Jordan — one filled with historic “firsts.” The Warriors not only captured their first-ever district championship but stormed through the postseason to make their debut at the UIL 6A-DII State Final, finishing with a stellar 35-4 record.
Their narrow 48–47 loss to Denton Guyer in the Alamodome stood as one of March’s most riveting contests, emblematic of the resilience and edge that 19-6A Coach of the Year Charlie Jones has ingrained in the program’s DNA.
