Class of 2026 Cypress Springs athlete Paris Melvin Jr., had an impressive sophomore year helping the Panthers to a 8-3 season ... one of the best seasons in recent years.

Cypress Springs third-year head coach Oji Fagan has been “chopping” his way through the Houston high school football wilderness to lead his Panthers to a 3-0 record entering district play.

North Shore and Atascocita are looking like serious State contenders but will pick each other off in district play and the playoffs.

"I'm just so thankful for [Ray] Zepeda and [Principal] Dr. Henry for believing in me and the vision that I have for Cypress Springs," Fagan said in a phone interview with VYPE. "It's a place where there's definitely some seeds there that we saw when we got to Fort Bend Marshall. For the past 10 years, Fort Bend Marshall has been home as a part of coach James Williams' staff. When Fagan arrived at Fort Bend Marshall prior to the 2011 season, the program had never won more than 10 games. In the 47-43 win, Fort Bend Marshall was facing and fourth and 12 with 33 seconds left.

HOUSTON - Cypress Springs has their fifth head coach in program history. Fort Bend Marshall offensive coordinator Oji Fagan has accepted the head coaching position according to sources. The Buffs reached the Regional Semifinals against Crosby this past season, in which the offense averaged 54.5 points per game. The Fort Bend Marshall coach takes over a Cypress Springs program that went 1-9 overall last season and has won just two games over the past three years. AdComing from a program that just registered its fifth-straight 10-plus win season, Fagan has the winning pedigree to get Cypress Springs back on top.
