High School Report – Teams to Watch Vol 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Texas High School season is well underway and there have been some teams that are separating themselves from the rest of the pack this season.&nbsp; This series will be highlighting a few of them as everyone marches through their district schedule.&nbsp; Let's take a closer look at who is standing out for these teams on the rise.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Lake Travis Cavaliers</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Cavs have been on a roll this year currently sitting at 30-4 on the season going into district play.&nbsp; In arguably one of the toughest districts in the state with the defending 6A state champs, Lake Travis is not backing down from anyone.&nbsp; Not when they have some serious studs across their roster.&nbsp; Led by six-foot two senior outside hitter [player_tooltip player_id='177544' first='Avery' last='Hamlin'] and fellow senior outside Camden Besecker dropping bombs on everyone offensively on the pins, this offense is explosive.&nbsp; Then add right side super sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='294264' first='Adyson' last='Davis'] who is third on the team in kills and you have a recipe for balance on offense that will make any defense tremble in fear.&nbsp; Six foot senior middle Kathryn Shelton has been The Great Wall for the Cav defense.&nbsp; She leads them in solo blocks and is a huge difference maker for their squad.&nbsp; Senior setter [player_tooltip player_id='202719' first='Kacey' last='Kazmierski'] is moving the ball around like the seasoned veteran that she is.&nbsp; She is on pace to have well over a thousand assists before playoffs even start.&nbsp; Look for this team to be battle tested and make a deep run this season.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Harlan Hawks</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Coming straight out of the west side of San Antonio are these hungry and feisty Hawks who are ready to rumble with anyone.&nbsp; They are definitely flying high sine they busted out on the scene last year and had a wonderful season.&nbsp; This team thrives on many players contributing to their success.&nbsp; They have some of the best balance and they are DEEP in every position.&nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id='216322' first='Aniya' last='Joseph'] is leading the team in kills.&nbsp; The senior fire-baller is a dual sport athlete and is extremely athletic around the court.&nbsp; She knows how to tool the block like a pro and hits around the block extremely well.&nbsp; Super sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='225200' first='DaMya' last='Mann'] is well known by us as she doubles as a setter and an attacker for their balanced offense.&nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id='182108' first='Thalia' last='Yancey'] showcases her athleticism all around the floor and can fly also.&nbsp; With liberos like [player_tooltip player_id='212735' first='Brooklyn' last='Vigil'] and [player_tooltip player_id='192043' first='Kiana' last='Souza'], this team has all of the ball control it needs in order to be devastating to any offense that tests it.&nbsp; Junior [player_tooltip player_id='212741' first='Isabella' last='De La Rosa'] is doing a phenomenal job distributing the ball to all of her wonderful attackers.&nbsp; She is leading the team in assists and plays excellent defense out of the right back zone.&nbsp; Senior middles Karrington Crawford and [player_tooltip player_id='227253' first='Morgan' last='Ritchie'] start the defense off right by playing solid at the net.&nbsp; They are 1 &amp; 2 in blocks on the team.&nbsp; This squad is ready for another long playoff run and we are going to love watching it happen.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Prosper Eagles</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The district 5-6A Eagles are soaring into another stellar season.&nbsp; They are currently 20-6 after playing a very difficult tournament schedule to start out the year.&nbsp; How can we talk about this team without mentioning the star of the show [player_tooltip player_id='155117' first='Ayden' last='Ames'].&nbsp; If you know volleyball, you know this name as she is the number one ranked player in the state of Texas.&nbsp; She leads the team in kills but there are some awesome players right behind her to keep the heat on any team.&nbsp; Senior [player_tooltip player_id='199548' first='Reese' last='Renfrow'] is a very explosive and strong outside hitter who we love at prep dig.&nbsp; She plays the game hard and is always smiling while doing it.&nbsp; Junior phenom setter/right side [player_tooltip player_id='180167' first='Hannah' last='Beauford'] has been as consistent as they come over the last few years.&nbsp; She is not afraid of anyone and never backs down from a challenge.&nbsp; Super sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='209429' first='Jayla' last='Jackson'] can flat out fly on the court and is very explosive with the ball offensively.&nbsp; Junior libero [player_tooltip player_id='202871' first='Sophie' last='Bridges'] is a ball magnet and is always set up in a great position to play the ball in the back row.&nbsp; Sophmore Keely Harrington is helping this squad run a great 6-2 offense with Hannah.&nbsp; Senior middle [player_tooltip player_id='187910' first='Sydney' last='Thornton'] is playing masterfully at the net as she leads the team in blocks and is second in hitting efficiency.&nbsp; It should be a tough battle with McKinney Boyd to see who will come out first in this district.&nbsp; We will be grabbing our popcorn and watching on the edge of our seat.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As always stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.&nbsp;
