TAPPS just completed is State Tournament also. Here is a recap of what transpired in the 4A Division.
Houston Northland Christian versus Fort Worth Lake Country for the State Championship. Lake Country came in to the championship match with an overall record of 14-3 and an undefeated district record of 10-0. They beat Arlington Pantego in five super close hard fought sets (22-25, 26-24, 25-23, 17-25, 16-14) in the Semi-finals to reach the championship match. Northland Christian had an impressive season with an overall record of 9-2. Northland defeated Katy Faith West to reach the finals. Now the two best teams in the state would have to square off in order to call themselves Texas TAPPS State Champs.
Junior Olivia Elofsson (District 1-4A MVP), super sophomore Kadence Lewis-Deanda (District 1-4A 1stTeam All-District), and senior Hailee Howell (District 1-4A 1stTeam All-District) lead the Fort Worth Lake Country volleyball team. Senior Maddie Pendley (District 1-4A Setter of the Year) is the floor general who slings the rock for LCCS.
This marked the third time in school history that Northland Christian volleyball has been to the State Title game. The last time was two years ago where they lost to Arlington Grace Prep. Northland Christian was able to win the championship in four sets (25-23, 26-24, 13-25, 25-16). It was the first Volleyball State Championship in school history.
We would like to congratulate Houston Northland Christian on their amazing season and way to cap it off with their State Championship!!! Enjoy it ladies.
