Ridge Point Panthers:
After upsetting Atascocita, 55-45, in the third round of the Class 6A Division I playoffs on December 26, Fort Bend Ridge Point lost to two-time defending state champion North Shore, 56-14, in the state quarterfinals yesterday.  Nonetheless, this is the first time that the Panthers have advanced to the state quarterfinals since moving to the 6A classification prior to the 2016 season.

The Ridge Point quarterback is junior Bert Emanuel Jr, the son of Bert Emanuel ’94 who was a two-year baseball and football letterman (1992-93) at Rice.  Also, sophomore DK Kalu, the son of four-year Rice football letterman ND Kalu ’97 (1993-94-95-96), plays defensive tackle for the Panthers.
