The varsity girls basketball team will advance to 5A Regional Semi-Finals after beating the Liberty Hill Panthers 42-37 at East View High School last night. This marks the first win for the team against Liberty Hill in the three times the teams have met up this season.
“[The win] feels so good,” senior guard Avery Allmer said. “We lost to them twice and now we finally won. This is the one that matters too, because now we get to move on in the playoffs which is so, so big for us.”
The T-Wolves will be returning to their regional semis game for the third time in four years, two of those years including the back-to-back State Champion run in 2021 and 2022. Junior forward Hope Edwards put up a game-high 23 points, the most points a player has put up against the Panthers’ defense all year, as well as five rebounds and three steals. Edwards scored 17 of her 23 points in the first half alone.

“I, myself, stayed mentally tough and got my team ready,” Edwards said. “I did not allow them to drop their heads and just made sure they were staying positive throughout the whole process. We were able to pull off the win and everybody did a good job. I’m glad we were just able to come through and show up.”
After falling to Liberty Hill two times in the regular season, Allmer said the team prepared by running through their plays and practicing playing defense and offense against the team’s systems. Allmer also said the team learned they had to change the pace in order to be successful against the Panthers.
“We like to rush a lot, so just slowing down the pace of their game and being patient is what we learned and what worked tonight for us,” Allmer said. “We just repped it and repped it again and again and focused a lot on [their plays] in practice, and, you know, got the win.”
Sophomore guard Ahnna Breiner, who finished the game with six points and six boards, said the win meant a lot to the team, as they are now advancing to the fourth round after suffering a first round loss last season to Wagner High School.
“It feels really good being together, especially because we get to celebrate together,” Breiner said. “We all want the same thing for each other and this just feels so good.”
The team will play Corpus Christi Veterans Memorial High School Friday at 5:30 in San Antonio. If the team wins, they will advance to Regional Finals on Saturday where they have the chance to meet back up with dsitrict rival Glenn High School.
“I’m feeling so excited [to move on in the playoffs],” Allmer said. “I feel like this is a big moral boost because we’ve lost a lot of close games and I feel like this is just a really big win for us.”

“There’s been times [when] there’s so much clothing stored here and it gets overwhelming, so I end up having to sleep somewhere else in the house,” Mckinney said.](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/DSC_0951-1200x800.jpg)

"I feel like it’s not really appreciated in America as much, but [tennis] is a really competitive and mentally challenging sport,” Nguyen said. “I’m really level-headed and can keep my cool during a match, and that helps me play a bit better under pressure.” Photo by Kyra Cox](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/hasun.jpg)

Lucas broke the school’s 18-year-old record for the 500 freestyle at regionals and again at state with a time of 4:58.63. “I’d had my eye on that 500 record since my freshman year, so I was really excited to see if I could get it at regionals or districts,” Lucas said. “ State is always a really fun experience and medaling for the first time was really great. It was a very very tight race, [so] I was a bit surprised [that I medaled]. [There were] a lot of fast girls at the meet in general, [and] it was like a dogfight back and forth, back and forth.” Photo by Kaydence Wilkinson](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Kaydence-2.7-23-edit-2.jpg)
