The Mustangs leapt into the third ranking after IMG Academy wrapped up its season and closed up its rank. Friendswood nipped at the heels of second-ranking St. Mary Prep from Orchard Lake, Michigan, a titan of team that's gone undefeated in its district and boasts current leadership in streaks and player of the week.

This week, Friendswood narrowly defeated Sterling 3-2 and stomped Santa Fe 5-1and buttoned up their season 24-0 overall and 16-0 in the district.

Friendswood is ranked sixth in Texas, third in Texas Division 5A and first in Region III, boasting a 181 power factor. 

Collin Cowie of Friendswood recently signed on to join the Saints in San Antonio at Our Lady of the Lake University.
