Eleven Cypress Christian School Student-Athletes Sign to Compete at the Collegiate Level

Cypress Christian School proudly celebrates 11 student-athletes who have signed National Letters of Intent to continue their athletic careers at the collegiate level. These signings represent years of dedication, perseverance and commitment to excellence both in competition and in the classroom, and they reflect the strength of CCS athletics and its mission to develop well-rounded student leaders.

Spring Signing Celebration

During a recent signing ceremony, six CCS athletes committed to compete at the next level:

  • Carson Basham – University of Oklahoma (Gymnastics)

  • Tucker Goodall – Ouachita Baptist University (Track & Field)

  • John Kelly – University of Kansas (Football)

  • Grayson Petru – Sam Houston State University (Golf)

  • Gavin Snyder – Eastern Illinois University (Track & Field)

  • Madeline Talkington – Stephen F. Austin University (Soccer)


Additional Collegiate Commitments

Two more Warriors later joined the list of collegiate signees:

  • Megan Smith – Angelina College (Softball)

  • Maximus Supplee – Hillsdale College (Football)


Final Signing Additions

The CCS athletics community recently celebrated three additional seniors who finalized their college commitments:

  • Tristan Fokken – Nelson University (Baseball)

  • Warren Haudek – Dallas College Mountain View (Baseball)

  • Kolton Kurek – Georgia Gwinnett College (Basketball)


A Remarkable Achievement for the Class

With these signings, 11 members of the senior class will go on to compete in college athletics, representing more than 14 percent of the graduating class. Nationally, only a small percentage of high school athletes advance to collegiate competition, making this accomplishment especially noteworthy.

These student-athletes exemplify the values Cypress Christian School seeks to instill in every student: discipline, perseverance, humility, teamwork and a commitment to honoring Christ in all they do. Their achievements are a testament to countless hours of training, support from families and coaches and a school community dedicated to nurturing both athletic and academic excellence.

Cypress Christian School congratulates these Warriors and looks forward to cheering them on as they represent CCS at the next level.

Cypress Christian School Lady Warriors Golf Team are STATE CHAMPS for the FIRST TIME IN SCHOOL HISTORY!

Cypress Christian School Lady Warriors Golf Team are STATE CHAMPS for the FIRST TIME IN SCHOOL HISTORY!

Since 1978, the Warriors have not had a state champion in golf…that streak came to an end this week as our Lady Warriors competed in the TAPPS 4A State Championship in Glen Rose, TX at Squaw Valley Golf Club. They pulled out an impressive two-day total score of 720 and won by five strokes. The competition at this year’s event was much more difficult than it has been in any of the recent years and our top five girls (Megan Cater, Claire Johnson, Makena Pham, Lindsey Brashier and Paige Petru) came through with clutch performances on both days. On day one, Makena Pham and Claire Johnson led the way with top scores of 87 and 88 and on day two, the Lady Warriors had three girls, Megan Cater (85), Lindsey Brashier (88) and Makena Pham (88), post rounds in the 80’s. The Cypress girls clearly had the most depth in this year’s tournament and all five girls were able to contribute on one or both days to pull off the victory! This season has been amazing and the overwhelming support of all the players and parents has contributed to the team’s success!

The Cypress Christian boys and girls golf teams competed in their first tournament of the season this past Monday, February 13. The event was played at Magnolia Creek Golf Club in League City and hosted 23 teams in the field. Both the boys and girls teams finished in third place!

The awards are determined by combining the lowest four scores of the players from each team. On the boys side Grayson Petru, Johnathan Cater, Cres Harris and Taylor Hotchkiss were the top scores and on the girls side Makena Pham, Claire Johnson, Megan Cater and Camden Maxey had the lowest rounds. The tournament included several of the top golf programs in our area and the Warriors competed very well for their first showing in 2023! The Warriors next tournament will be hosted by Summer Creek High School at Atascocita Golf Club on Thursday, March 2. 

Congrats, Cypress Christian golf team on a great start to the year! Go, Warriors!
