Dodd City's and Ector's girls and boys teams joined Sam Rayburn's girls and Leonard's boys as picks by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches to earn district postseason berths during the 2020-21 season.

TABC favored the Lady Hornets, a 2020 regional semifinalist, to extend their district championship streak to nine -- the previous eight have come via undefeated runs -- via the 23-1A title, with the Lady Eagles, a 2020 area finalist, as the runner-up.

Meanwhile, the Hornets, a 2020 area finalist, likewise gained favor for a second district championship in the last three years in 23-1A, with the Eagles, a 2020 regional quarterfinalist, as the third-place qualifier.

TABC picked Sam Rayburn's Lady Rebels and Leonard's Tigers, each a bi-district finalist in 2020, to finish third, respectively, in 14-2A girls and 11-3A boys basketball.
