They lost to Angleton the first game of the year and then won 37 in a row. They even beat the 4A State Champion that year in a regular season tourney. Pretty salty group!!

I was in 9th or 10th grade at the time. They probably would have won again the following year if Bailey watts had stayed in WC, although Parker was great as well.
