Mendez Pairs Field-Best Scoring With a Title for Top of Texas Stars

Mackenzie Mendez finished the tournament as its top scorer, and her Top of Texas Stars finished with the championship. That combination is the case.

Across 5 games, Mendez averaged 6.0 points and totaled 30, leading her team in scoring. She did it without a single three, building every point from inside the arc and the line.

The signature game came against Booker Ballerz, where Mendez poured in 15 points and earned Player of the Game honors. It was the high point of a run that stayed steady elsewhere. She added 6 points against Dalhart Divas and another 6 against Canadian Lady Cats-Richardson, contributing in each step rather than fading between her best nights.

The rest of her line tells the same story. Mendez ranked first in the field in scoring, the only number that needs little context. She carried the scoring load for her own team and collected a Player-of-the-Game nod along the way. An MVP run built on a tournament-high average, a field-leading total, and recognition from the bracket.

The Stars won the title, and Mendez was the player out in front of it. The award reads as the natural end of the run rather than a separate honor. Field-best scoring, team-leading production, a Player of the Game, and a championship. The numbers make the argument on their own.
