Mansfield Summit came to Houston and had a successful showing against three of the areas top teams. They defeated The Woodlands (52-50) and lost to Cy Falls (56-48) and Clear Springs (59-52) and prior to losing to Dekaney, both teams were ranked #1 at one time in the area Flash forward to the Mansfield Rotary Tournament where Jasmine Jackson knocked down 14-16 from the line on her way to 23 points in their opener against Trimble Tech however their lone loss in the tournament happened in the next round against Arkansas Cabot (47-29)
That was their only loss in the tournament, they won the next three games and finished in 7th place for the event. Jackson's showing on offense gives them another threat to go along with Ashley Eli (North Carolina State) and Maya Hawkins, who made all tournament and also was spectacular in the Texas Invitational. Ranked #4 by TABC in 4A, Summit reached the Region 1 final last season where they lost to Canon (29-26) and I'm sure they feel they can make it to state this season and if they stay healthy, I kind of have that same feeling.
