THE COUGAR’S D E N

KEMPNER COUGARS Led by coach Jerome Muniz, the Kempner Swim team is coming off one of its most successful seasons to date. The boys finished fourth overall in Class 5A, with multiple State Champions, including Jack Boysen, Arthur Newton, and Justin Chacon. On the girls’ side, Haley Finley secured a silver medal, adding to the program’s impressive achievements. On the basketball court, the Jeff Whitaker-led boys’ team put together a strong campaign, finishing 18-13 and advancing to the second round of the playoffs, thanks to standout performances from Mario James (Sr. F), Isaiah Washington (Jr. G/F), and Jordan Harris (Jr. G). The girls’ team faced a tougher road, but with leading scorers Meghan Lausser (Fr. G), Nia McWilliams (Jr. G), and Keona Jackson (So. G) all set to return, the future looks bright. In soccer, the Kempner girls secured a playoff spot despite facing challenges throughout the season, while the boys narrowly missed out on a postseason berth. As the spring season unfolds, both the baseball and softball teams continue to develop in a competitive district. Meanwhile, the golf team remains optimistic, and Kempner Track & Field is poised for a strong showing behind key athletes KeiMoni Davis, Gbolahan Oyetunji, Ashlyn Adams, Kenna Negassa, and Janieya Sheppard.
