Westside Home of the Wolves

Westside High School the home of where elite guards like Sydney Colson of Texas A&M had risen, now another skilled point guard name Tiffany Davis is making noise around the city. Daughter of former Houston Rockets point guard Emmanuel Davis is making a name for herself in the high school girl’s basketball arena. First time I saw Tiffany was back in 2006 playing for the Sure Shots AAU team competing in a tournament at the Ripley House near Houston ship channel. I remember her dribbling and driving down the middle lane confidently and was one of the girls in her team that gave Team NCI Elite a run for their money. Being coached and taught by her dad who played professionally is a great advantage for Tiffany.

Though, 2012 will be another year for Houston’s girls basketball triumph with girls that will populate college basketball arenas. It includes not only guards like Courtney Williams of North Shore, Jazmyn Guerrero of Dobbie high school, Raven Burns who teams up with Bianca Winslow daughter of former UH Phi Slamma Jamma Rickie Winslow at Bellaire high school, but we also have post players at Hightower high school, the T2 twin towers Tyler and Taylor Gilbert. Another 2012 guard is Sylvana Okde for Dulles where Kelsey Bone was a household name in 2008. More to come…
