Goose Creek CISD April 2023

BOYS BASKETBALL

The hardwood was good to Goose Creek Memorial, as the Patriots continued to build their program under the direction of Jamal Haymon. The Pats finished third in a competitive District 17-5A and beat Texas City in the first round of the postseason. Defense was the team’s calling card and Diamon Maloney earned the Defensive MVP for the district. Sterling had a solid season, going 16-19 overall and 6-8 in district. The Rangers missed the playoffs by one spot but won more games in a single-season since 2007. Johnny Daniels Jr. led the way for Sterling along with Deshawn Broussard and Bryson Elmore. Need a fun fact? Kylan Williams of Lee earned a first-team, all-district nod as a junior. Only one other GCCISD player earned a first-team selection.
