I can think of a couple.  Theresa Witherspoon of West Sabine and Barbara Hickey of Orangefield.  One won a Olympic Gold Medal.  The other went Pro from Lamar.

[Guest bleed orange]

There was a girl from WOS that went to Lamar, I believe that was pretty good. Was her name Tresha Gant. I know I misspelled her name. Sorry!!!!!

You were close bleed, its Travessa Gant and yes she was very good, play on the Elite 8 Lamar team with Barbara Hickey.  Also on that team was Ramona Jones who I think was from HJ.

[Bobkat]

Her name was Travessa Gant!!!

[stealthninja]

how does Ang Green measure up to these mentioned above?

[CoachKfan]

I've coached against all of these young ladies I think and my top three would have to be:

1. Teresa Witherspoon

2. Brandi McCain

3. Trevessa Gant

LaQuan Stallworth from Silsbee would have to mentioned also.

[whsalum]

I'm probably biased but the best I ever saw was Coach Sims at HJ and I saw her ALOT.She averaged over 32 pts a game in a 4 year high school career and is currently 2nd on the all time scorers list at LU.Had there been a 3-pt line back in the day I don't think anyone would even be close.Girl could pull up from 20 ft and shoot the prettiest jumper you ever looked at.There wasn't a womens pro league at that time or she would have had a different proffession.

[Kris_Gilmore]

Babe Didrikson Zaharias...

[jr1979]

ALTHOUGH, HER CAREER IS BARELY JUST GETTING STARTED BRITTANY SCOTT, WILL BE MENTIONED AMONG THESE ELITE PLAYERS TO COME OUT OF SETX.

I heard the used actual peach baskets back then AND had a big net draped around the court...... ;D

[whsalum]

No disrespect to Miss Scott but you gotta pay your dues before you park in this lot  ;D ;D ;D

She would drape anything she could find around the court to keep from chasing the ball and we couldn't afford peach baskets ;D ;D

I UNDERSTAND THAT, THAT'S WHY I SAID THAT HER NAME WILL BE SOON MENTIONED AS ONE OF THE BEST OUT OF SETX.

I agree that Scott and Brittney James are a couple of the best I have ever seen play personally.

I would say LaQuan Stallworth was the best High School player in State of Texas that came through.  Then look at her accomplishments at Louisiana Tech and what they did.  If it wasn't for her they would have not made it to the Final Four.  3 Time Defensive Player of the Year, All American in High School and played overseas 4 yrs averaging 32 points a game in Israel, 20 in China, 18 in Russia, and 19 in Germany.  That girl was raw.

Next choice Teresa Witherspoon - Look what she did at Tech and in the WNBA and overseas and USA TEAM.

Next in line Tamicha Jackson.

I don't know about other but I think Melaney Hamery who now coaches at Deweyville (can't remember where she played in high school) is awesome. I mean have you seen all the hardware she collected during her time at Baylor University.

Thanks for the props but my name shouldn't be on this list and I never went pro   I just got a job lol.. but thank you..

Teresa Weatherspoon gets my vote... I played against her twice and both times I was in awe of how good she was.  I "Thought" I had her trapped at half court once.  She did this little spin move and smiled at me as she threw a perfect pass from half court, behind her head, to Venus Lacey who was standing under the goal.  All I could do was shake her hand and say "great pass"..  So, thats my vote

[Bobcat1]

I know, I mean your only the 4th leading scorer at Lamar. You stink :

;D

I would have to say Brandi McCain from Silsbee........

She's the best female player I've ever seen in person. I don't see a lot of girls bb but I knew she was special when dayton and Silsbee used to be in the same district. I remember her shooting with both hands! Crazy!

[aTmfan06]

What about Kayla Hargraves?? She could have a bright future.

Of all time?!  No way. She's good, but she isn't even the best in the area this year.

[McLovin]

Ang Green...the Future!
