Briarwood Athletes Shine in Spring Sports Season

As the school year draws to a close, the Briarwood Mustangs have again demonstrated their athletic skills and competitive spirit in various sports. At Briarwood, our students begin their athletics journey in Middle School, a unique aspect of our athletic program. We believe that participation in sports offers numerous benefits to students with learning differences, such as enhancing motor skills and boosting focus and self-esteem. Briarwood is a proud member of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools, or TAPPS, enabling our students to compete with other schools across Texas.

Congratulations to doubles state champions Ian J. and Andres B. for their stellar performance. Senior Brandon H. finished third place in the individual state rankings.

Track and Field

Our Middle School track athletes concluded their season on a high note at their final meet, bringing home impressive awards and breaking multiple records.

Our athletes broke seven school records this year, including the boys’ 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, 4×100 relay, 4×200 relay, discus, and girls’ 55 meters. This is a clear testament to their hard work and dedication, with numerous Mustangs also setting new personal bests.
