Shelton Henderson of Bellaire is the VYPE Player of the Year
The depth of the Greater Houston basketball landscape was vast in 2025.
While it was thought to be a bit of a down year coming into the season, it saw five H-Town programs advance to the State Finals.
Duke signee Shelton Henderson of Bellaire was special. He led the HISD school to the brink of a State Title. The Cards had a shot at the buzzer to beat mighty Duncanville, which fell short.
Henderson was an easy choice at the top... the rest of the All-VYPE teams took hours of discussion and disagreements. It was that competitive.
Here are the All-VYPE Pubic School Teams of 2025.

Summer Creek girls basketball visits the VYPE House
Down 18 points with three minutes left in the third quarter of the State Title game, Summer Creek coach Kiara Marshall didn’t panic.
The first-year head coach of the Bulldogs trusted the work that they put in all season in practice.
It paid off as Summer Creek won its first ever girls basketball State Title after being to the Final Four, four of the past six years.
VYPE’s Matt Malatesta talked to the crew inside the VYPE "On My Whistle Podcast".

This past spring marked a significant milestone for Bridgeland, as the Bears advanced to the Regional Final for the first time since becoming a varsity program in the 2018-2019 school year. From the outset, coach Paul Orlando and his staff have cultivated a winning mentality, one that has now elevated the Bears to “State Contender” status.
This momentum is expected to carry into 2025. During their historic run, Bridgeland was only stopped by eventual State Champion Tomball. With the new divisional structure of the UIL playoffs, the Bears are well-positioned for future success, especially with a talented roster returning to the diamond.
On the mound, Christopher Gutierrez (UTSA commit) and Josh Livingston (second-team, all-district) lead a strong pitching staff. In the field, first-teamers Weston Riddle (Sr. IF) and Caleb Simons (Jr. OF), along with Northwestern State-commit Austin Glasscock (Sr. 1B/ LHP), bring veteran experience.
Caden Hinze (second team) and Trey Allen (honorable mention) also return, providing depth across multiple positions. With a mix of established talent and promising players, Bridgeland is well-composed to build on last year’s success and remain a formidable force.
