(TJC Head Coach) Corey Rose and the Apaches are getting a true gem as Briana heads to Tyler Junior College to continue her athletic career.”
Elizabeth Parker, Girls Soccer – Oklahoma Wesleyan
Tyler Legacy Head Coach Chris Woodard: “Liz Parker is an exceptional athlete and person. She played a vital role in our team’s success at the sub-varsity level in past seasons and has now made the leap to varsity. Liz brings a tremendous work ethic and strong leadership skills that will undoubtedly carry her to the next level. She’s a versatile player who primarily plays in the defense. However, she can play in the midfield or up front. Oklahoma Wesleyan is fortunate to have her joining their squad for the 2025-2026 season.”

Tyler Legacy Head Coach Chris Woodard: “Alaia Privett is a returning varsity player who we’re excited to see excel this season. Last year, she earned All-District and Academic All-District honors. Alaia is primarily a defender but is versatile enough to play any position on the field. Beyond her athletic talents, she’s a standout student in Legacy High School’s sports medical training program. Her strong work ethic and core Christian values make her a perfect fit for Coach Joey Petrich and East Texas Baptist University.”
