A Summer of Growth
After finishing second in District 24‑4A last year, the Lady Mustangs are leveraging that momentum as they step onto the summer league hardwood. The experience from the 2025‑26 campaign has given the coaching staff a clear blueprint for what works, and the players are eager to translate that into a new setting.
The upcoming schedule pits the team against familiar rivals such as Fischer Canyon Lake and Faith Academy of Marble Falls, while also welcoming newcomers like Johnson City. Each matchup offers a chance to test different lineups, experiment with strategies, and give younger athletes meaningful minutes.
Blending Experience with Fresh Talent
This summer the roster features a mix of familiar faces and promising newcomers. Veteran starters who guided the team to a strong district run return, but they will be joined by several talented players who have earned their spots through offseason work. The coaching staff has emphasized that every player will have a voice in the flow of the game.
In these contests the athletes are responsible for calling their own plays and officiating their own fouls. That self‑officiated format not only builds accountability but also forces the team to develop a deeper understanding of game dynamics. It’s a departure from traditional summer play, where coaches often take a more hands‑on role.
The result is a vibrant, fast‑paced environment where the Lady Mustangs can sharpen their skills while fostering leadership among the players. As the summer progresses, the team hopes to carry the lessons learned onto the regular season, aiming for another deep run in District 24‑4A.
