With the postseason in the rearview mirror after another highly-competitive season on the court, it’s time to reflect on the standout players and teams that highlighted the 2021-22 campaign in Texas high school girls basketball.

SBLive Texas will recognize the top girls basketball players throughout the state from this past season by unveiling All-Region teams and awards for Central, East, North, South and West Texas leading up to the release of SBLive’s All-State Texas High School Girls Basketball teams and awards.

We will start our end-of-season review deep in the heart of Central Texas, where a handful of Hill Country heavyweights in Class 2A, 4A and 5A dominated our All-CenTex selections and several of the state’s top scorers left their mark this year.

Junior forward Gisella Maul and head coach Danny Ott headline a group of four Cedar Park players and coaches recognized after leading the Timberwolves to a 37-0 record and second straight 5A state championship.

Cedar Park led all schools with four All-CenTex picks with District 25-5A rival Georgetown, 4A state semifinalist Fredericksburg and 2A state semifinalist San Saba garnering three All-Central Texas selections each.
