It was the program’s first state championship since 2019.

During his 15-year run with the Justices, White compiled a record of 322-60 (.842) winning percentage
Scouting Report on Chacho Womack: Womack operates primarily as an offensive initiator, a true scoring guard who thrives with the ball in his hands but also understands how to leverage space and timing off the ball to maximize his impact. He plays with a smooth tempo that often belies his overall effectiveness, rarely forcing the issue but always probing for advantage against various defensive schemes. His decision-making in the pick-and-roll is mature beyond his years, showcasing the ability to hit the roll man with accuracy and find perimeter shooters or create his own shot with a combination of dribble moves and crafty footwork. On the defensive end, displaying active hands in passing lanes to disrupt offensive flow. He influences the game by consistently bending defenses with his scoring gravity, opening up opportunities for teammates through his constant threat to attack the rim, pull up from mid-range, or step back for a deep three-pointer. His court awareness and ability to change pace are significant assets.
