From the hardwood to the gridiron and beyond, taking a look back and ahead at the San Antonio-area high school sports landscape:

By the numbers
2,000: Career digs for Reagan senior libero Maddie Correa, who reached the milestone during the Rattlers’ District 28-6A win vs. Johnson on Nov. 4.

A Texas Tech signee, she joined a group that includes the likes of Fredericksburg’s Payton Robertson (2,906 digs), Brennan’s Makenna Hanssen (2,503), Clark’s Madison Woods (2,334), La Vernia’s Christa Reyes (2,272), Reagan’s Lydia Niebla (2,215), Navarro’s Sydney Sahd (2,187), Clark’s Mia Ybarra (2,082), East Central’s Brandi Campos (2,073), Holy Cross’ Daisy Flores (2,016), Steele’s Geneva Moreno (2,011) and O’Connor’s Dominique Gonzalez.

New Braunfels’ Daniella Villarreal, who helped the Unicorns reach the 2012 UIL Class 6A state final, played at UTSA, and is now an assistant coach at Clark, is believed to be the area’s all-time leader in digs with 3,076.

1,000: Career assists for New Braunfels senior setter Ella Brunson and Incarnate Word junior setter Isabella Gomez. Brunson accomplished the feat during the Unicorns’ District 27-6A volleyball match vs. Clemens on Nov. 6. Gomez reached the mark during the Shamrocks’ sweep of Austin St. Dominic Savio on Oct. 27.

500: Career wins for Navarro girls basketball coach Darrell Harborth, who reached the standard during the Panthers’ season-opening 58-38 victory over Wimberley on Nov. 7.

Harborth is in his 23rd season at Navarro and guided the Panthers to the UIL Class 3A state tournament during the 2013-14 season.

9: Area athletes recognized on either a national or regional level by the American Volleyball Coaches Association. Reagan’s Nyah Anderson and Maddie Correa and Clark’s Elise McGhee received honorable mention on the organization’s Under Armour All-America team. Anderson signed with the University of Miami and McGhee is headed to Baylor.

Anderson, McGhee and Correa joined Cornerstone’s Lauren Briseno, Churchill’s Alyssa Ortega, New Braunfels Christian’s Camdyn Doucet and Hailey Hamlett, and New Braunfels’ Rian Millership and Ella Brunson on the AVCA All-Region 4 squad. The regional team is comprised of players from Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Mississippi.
