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 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 began our end-of-season review earlier this week deep in the heart of Central Texas.

Now, it’s time to shift our attention to the top athletes throughout the Brazos Valley, Golden Triangle, Houston area and beyond for our SBLive All-East Texas Girls Basketball teams and awards.

Hardin-Jefferson (4A), Fairfield (3A) and Neches (1A) led a strong showing of small school powerhouse programs with three or more selections each, while competition for spots among the top 5A-6A and private school players around the state’s biggest city was fierce.
