ALAMO 16 Premier | Houston Juniors 16 Elite | MKE Sting 16 Gold | Rockwood Thunder 16 Elite |
Arguably one of the most exciting divisions to prep for going into the weekend. This 16s group is top tier. 1st Alliance won the 15s division last year and are coming off of a huge championship at Central Zone. This team is massive and going to be hard to contain with Abby Vander Wal and Addy Horner. Legacy was a top three finisher at TC in 2022 and eventually won the AAU National championship for 15s. Campbell Flynn runs a well-oiled machine and will need to be in tip top shape. Keep an eye on Alamo as well. A tough team out of Texas, this squad knocked 1st Alliance, Drive Nation and AZ Storm out of the USAV gold bracket and went onto win USAV Nationals last summer.
Final Four In
AZ Sky 16 Gold | GP 16 Rox | HPSTL 16 Royal | Northern Lights 16-1 |
This group of teams are tough for sure. HPSTL is one of those teams. They had a strong showing at Central Zone. A lot of size and physicality to make some noise.
15U Power Pool
First 28 in!
A5 Mizuno 15 Bob | Boiler Juniors 15 Gold | Houston Performance 15 Elite | NKYVC 15 Tsunami | Team Pineapple 15 Black |
ALAMO 15 Premier | Dallas Skyline 15 Royal | Houston Skyline 15 Royal | OTVA 15 Semei | Top Select 15 Elite |
Austin Performance 15 Adidas | Elevation 15-1 | Legacy 15-1 Adidas | Pohaku VBC 15-1 | TSTREET 15-Curtis |
Austin Skyline 15 Royal | FaR Out 15 Black | MADFROG 15 National Green | SCVC 15 Roxy | Wave 15 Brennan |

AZ Storm 15 Thunder | Gamepoint 15 Rox | MKE Sting 15 Gold | TAV 15 Black |
A lot of Lone Star talent will be on display in this division’s power pool. With 8 of the 32 teams hailing from Texas, you’ll be at no shortage of Texas talent in the 15s. Of those teams, Madfrog is the team to watch. They won the 14s division at Triple Crown a year ago. Mintonette placed fifth at TC last year before winning USAV Nationals in the summer. This M.51 is a tough bunch of kids and are coming off of a huge Central Zone championship as well. The likes of Mallory Matheny and Alia Schoonover are few names to watch out for.
Final Four In
AVC CLE 15 Red | High Tide 15 Elite | HPSTL 15 Royal | WPVC 15 Armour Black |
Rounding out the 15s division, AVC CLE and company are all great additions to the first 28.
