Parish caps milestone season Mar 3, 2008
The Lady Panthers reached their first TAPPS state girls basketball tournament to highlight Parish’s most successful season. Parish lost to Tomball Concordia during the semifinals in San Antonio on Feb. 29.

In addition to winning the District 2-5A title, Parish was ranked in the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches’ state poll and the North Texas poll of The Dallas Morning News.

Senior Lucy Keith was named the district’s Most Valuable Player, sophomore Whitney Keith was the Defensive Player of the Year and Chesnie Brackens the Freshman of the Year. Parish’s Jason Samuels was the Coach of the Year.

Selected second-team all-district was Brooke Thoele. Honorable mention selections were Amanda Daum, Marielle LeMasters, Blaire Butler and Camie Robertson.
