<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The high school season is officially underway in the state of Texas and we've started giving you the best coverage of everything that's happening across the Lone Star State between now and November.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We are, as usual, centering our coverage around promoting the most intriguing prospects around the state with articles that will highlight their standout performances and statistical milestones and also team features.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As much as possible, we'll also try to every Tuesday and Friday preview an interesting match that's set to happen around the state, pointing out the most impressive prospects that will be on the court in that encounter. Today's selected match is the one between the Goose Creek Memorial Patriots, who won their opening match, and the Dobie Longhorns, who dropped theirs. The teams met on Friday, August, 12, at 6.30 pm, and here are the players we believe can make a difference in the match.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"large"} --> <p class="has-large-font-size"><strong>Goose Creek Memorial</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_62f40775c33ef","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Christian Stringer","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2023","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"32924","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Goose Creek Memorial","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"Xcel","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"The team's top scorer last season, Stringer is ready to lead the Patriots' offense once again.
