Southlake Carroll's varsity girls basketball is making all kinds of history the 2023-2024 season. The 21-5 Dragons are undefeated in their division with six games remaining and with sights set on a state title. Also, this year's squad features four sisters named the "Jordan sisters."

"I want you to imagine playing with your 3 siblings. That's not easy," coach Robyn McCoart recalls telling her team this year.

Milania, Natalia, Giana and Nadia are four sisters who are mostly all a year apart in age. Nadia is a freshman, Giana and Natalia are sophomores, and Milania is a junior.

"More people are starting to hear about us more," said Milania. "We can beat a lot of teams because of our chemistry," said Nadia.

The sisters tell WFAA their parents have been playing them together since they were very young. They've played together on club and travel teams but always looked forward to playing together on their high school team. Giana tells WFAA their sisterhood and history of playing together gives them an advantage on the court. Of course, you can't discount the countless hours of training and film-watching that happens in preparation for the game.

"It is four hours. It is anything and everything we do wrong," Giana said referring to their father, Walsh's, film sessions after a game.

It is that meticulous bit of preparation that bodes well for the Lady Dragons this year. It is important to note the sisters are quick to mention the effort and abilities of their other teammates as well.

"There's nobody on this team, I guarantee you, that has one bad thing to say about them...that's impressive," said McCoart.

They have humility, intensity and ability combined with an unspoken connection. And, a name already synonymous with basketball.
