Strong Finish... The Village High School

The last two games of The Village high school shows a lot of maturity. The young Vikings lost against to one of the nations rated prep high school team Houston Christian Life helps the Vikings understand what they need to work on for the next season. After the lost to Houston Christian Life, they ended their season winning over HCYA Warriors coming back from a 30 points deficit and sealing the season with another win at home. Michael Carey (23) played with a lot of heart together with Smith (5), Williams (24) and Leal (15). Wannah Bail (32) had a great game with two slam dunks showing his authority at home. O'neal (44) give HCYA trouble in the middle grabbing rebounds both on defense and offense. From here on the Vikings can only look forward to their great future ahead. The Village School now looks f0r the return of Alexander and Matthews who both suffered injuries. Alexander who could have contributed to the team this past season injured his knee at practice while Matthews tore his ACL late in the season. Upon their return and a few possible new addition to the Vikings roster makes it a lot brighter for The Village School next year.

Quiet Uprise of The Village School


When everyone thought it was over... from The Village School stand point it was just the beginning. Silent but they explode like thunder and will crash everyone that will stand in their way to the future. The season is almost over and they are closing it out with a strong message to everyone. WE ARE COMING BACK! They have a few more games left and everyone is about ready to put on their summer AAU team jerseys. Uncertain where each players will be playing, but for sure all AAU coaches are eyeing these young group of talents. Village School boys and girls basketball program are in the development stages and will soon be one of the elite sports program in the nation. Academically well prepared athletes are soon to be recognized with it's 1st graduating class in 2012. The boys basketball is very well underway to be a great team if not the best next year. The girls program will need a lot of help and are still looking to build around a very young guard. It may take them another year or two to get that program to rise up and be recognized.

Future KG @ The Village High School





6'8" Wanna Bail (2012) shows the looks and style of play like KG. He is one of the promissing young athlete that will be highly recruited in the next coming years. Quick and long can shoot and handle like a guard but decent and strong in the post.
