Brien Tuffly enters year 28 of leading the Bellaire Cardinals. In that span, he has amassed 681 wins and is in line to get career win No. 700 in 2025. A total of seven starters return for Tuffly off a team that went 24-13 and reached the Area Round of the playoffs.
Xavier University-commit Isabella Rivera and Emory University-commit Lauren Magid return to the mix this year after earning first-team and second-team, all-district honors, respectively.
Other returners include first-team, all-district pick Alessandra Filis and second-teamers Ava Skow, Sophie Donalson, Sophia Alvarado, and Meaghan Lande.
According to Tuffly, the defensive play of the Cardinals will be the key to their success this season.

Deer Park is coming off a year that saw them go 29-8 overall and reach the Area Round of the playoffs. Amy Vidal-Bush enters her fifth year of leading the program and has a 141-31 overall record and the 2021 UIL Class 6A State Championship in that time.
Six starters return for Vidal-Bush including Texas Tech-commit Braelynn Jones, the District Pitcher of the Year in 2024, Texas State-commit Camryn Plocheck (firstteam, all-district), and Temple College-commit Madi Alvarado.
Other key returners include first-team, all-district picks Izzy Mendoza, Kayla Barras, and Mia Montemayor (Texas Southern-commit) and secondteamers Aleena Carrizales (Texas Southern-commit), Mariah Ramirez and Zoie Powell (San Jac-commit).

The 2024 season was one that saw Pearland Dawson amass 20 wins and reach the playoffs. But third-year coach Chelsea Festervand is ready to make a run with this squad as she returns six starters off last year’s team including Miami University (Ohio)-commit Evey Dieudonne.
Other key returners include Elena Luna (Alvin CC-commit) and Peyton Travis (St. Mary’s University-commit). Pearland Dawson also brings back first-team, all-district picks Caroline Roth and Katy Hollier along with second-teamers Carissa Anaya, Elena Laney and Chloe Prince.
Challenging and supporting each other will be the keys to success for Festervand’s team in 2025 as they seek an eight-year streak of playoff appearances.
