Taking a Leap: Varsity Basketball Looks to Build on Last Year’s Playoff Run

Buzz! The bell rings on a Friday afternoon, and while most students immediately jump in their cars to begin their weekend, players on the varsity boys basketball team head over to the gym for a two-hour practice. After already practicing in the morning during the athletic period for a similar amount of time, they go back to do it again in preparation for their upcoming season.

The team opens up their season against Lake Travis on Friday at 8 p.m. at Concordia University. The game is part of the CTX Showcase which features 16 teams from across the area playing a game on Friday or Saturday to begin their seasons. Last year in this showcase, the Vipers defeated Westlake 48-45.

“[If we want to beat Lake Travis], it’s going to take overall effort, discipline, and just sticking to the strategies that we’ve come up with,” sophomore guard Ethan Fox said. “We also need to stick to the gameplan that we have.”

The program has been gaining lots of momentum over the past nine months after beating Westlake for the second time in the season, with a score of 49-47. This win marked the first playoff win since Coach Sierra has been the head coach, now entering his fourth year as coach for the Vipers.

“I feel like last year, we really learned how to win at the highest stage and playoffs,” senior forward Hayden Brannan said. “We’ve really gone off that in the offseason, and I think we’re carrying that momentum into this year and trying to do even better this year.”

From Classroom to Company: ACCeleratoredu Students Turn Ideas into Reality

Inside the ACCelerator lab, creativity fills as students take their ideas from papers to pitches. The INCubator class gives students the chance to dream up products and companies, but ACCelerator is where those dreams are tested, refined, and launched toward real-world investors.

“It’s a really fun class to teach because every year you have groups come in that have completely different business ideas,” Erin Mathis, ACCelerator and INCubator teacher, said. “Every day I learn probably as much as they do, because I learn about all the different products and how to manufacture them. It’s a practicum class so they take ownership of [their businesses].”

Mathis said that she has seen “tremendous growth” in this year’s cohort of 8 teams.

“This is the biggest group we’ve had,” Ms. Mathis said. “So many of them have overcome challenges like finding manufacturers or managing costs, but they’ve all pushed through.”

The transition from the INCubator to ACCelerator class is defined by the “final pitch,” where students pitch to a panel of investors who determine whether they advance to launching their business and joining the ACCelerator class. Hence, in a practicum class, the teams that research into what customers and investors want are the ones that often end up advancing.

Meet the 2025-26 Accelerator companies:
Better Bite
Outside the Health & Wellness Shop in Steiner Ranch, senior Aishwarya Garapati and her team smile proudly beside a store display featuring their product, Better Bite. Their allergen-free protein bites are designed to provide energy without caffeine crashes.

“Our product is a healthy protein bite that actually tastes good,” Garapati said. “We value a good, chocolatey taste as well as being allergen-free and gluten-free.”

What began as a classroom concept has become a small but thriving business. “We sold out for the first time at a football game, which was huge for us,” Garapati said. “Now we’re restocking stores every week.”

Garapati said her team plans to continue beyond graduation.
