Continue ReadingLast week was a big one for high school volleyball in the state of Texas as Garland hosted the University Interscholastic League (UIL) State Tournament, where six state champions were crowned among the numerous public high schools of the Lone Star State.
At the same time, the top private high schools of the state were competing for their state titles in Waco, the host city of the Texas Association of Parochial and Private High Schools (TAPPS) State Championship, where six other teams emerged victorious.
As last week our focus was entirely on what going on in Garland, we’ll take the next few days to honor the winners of the TAPPS tournament and its top performers. The final division we’ll address is 6A.
6A
The St. Agnes Academy triumphed in the division with the last of their 37 victories in the season – they lost just seven games along the way.
The Lady Tigers from Houston came from behind to down the Prestonwood Christian Academy Lions 3-1 (16-25, 25-19, 25-20, 25-22) and secure the title.
