VYPE
The Paetow Panthers in VYPE rankings for first time in school history.
Originally Appeared on VYPE
With the bye weeks behind us, the meat of the season is ahead.
There were a few games that had implications on the rankings, however. Cypress Woods put a flat tire in the Bridgeland Bear bandwagon, while Klein Oak's Dwight McGlothern showed out against The Woodlands in a win.
Elkins bowed out to Travis; Cypress Lakes just fell to Cypress Ranch and Clear Falls was knocked out of the Top 20 by Clear Springs.
In Class 5A, Shadow Creek crushed Angleton and Baytown Lee fell to Port Neches-Groves. That makes room for 4-0 newcomer Paetow High School for the first time in school history.

Oswald Peraza hit a two-run single in the ninth inning to help the Los Angeles Angels snap a three-game losing skid by beating the Houston Astros 4-1 on Saturday night.
Peraza entered the game as a defensive replacement in the seventh inning and hit a bases-loaded fly ball to deep right field that eluded the outstretched glove of Cam Smith. It was the fourth straight hit off Astros closer Bryan Abreu (3-4), who had not allowed a run in his previous 12 appearances.
The Angels third run of the ninth inning scored when Mike Trout walked with the bases loaded.
Kyle Hendricks allowed one run while scattering seven hits over six innings. He held the Astros to 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position, the one hit coming on Jesús Sánchez’s third-inning infield single that scored Jeremy Peña.
Reid Detmers worked around a leadoff walk to keep the Astros scoreless in the seventh, and José Fermin (3-2) retired the side in order in the eighth before Kenley Jansen worked a scoreless ninth to earn his 24th save.
Houston’s Spencer Arrighetti struck out a season-high eight batters over 6 1/3 innings. The only hit he allowed was Zach Neto’s third-inning solo home run.
Yordan Alvarez had two hits for the Astros, who remained three games ahead of Seattle for first place in the AL West.
