Not only did seniors Liah Romero, Denise Contreras, and Lizbeth De Los Santos make the grade on the court for the 30-8 Arabian basketball team this past season, but they also made the grade where it really counts which is their classrooms at Devine High School.
The Texas High School Coaches Association tabulates graduating seniors overall GPA (92+), class rank, and standardized test scores to place members on various teams within the Academic All-State teams. THSCA does not factor in a school’s classification, and there are no limits to how many may be included at each level.
Romero landed on the 2nd Team while Honorable Mention recognition went to Contreras and De Los Santos.
Congratulations Liah, Denise, and Lizbeth for upholding the true definition of what it means to be a “student-athlete.”
