💙🐴 Meet the Mustangs!

What a way to kick off a new school year! Friendswood High School athletes came together at Mustang Stadium for an evening of school spirit, community and connection.

Meet the Mustangs gives our community a chance to meet the student-athletes representing FHS this year, but some of the best moments happen with our youngest Mustangs. Seeing them interact with the athletes they look up to is a special reminder that today’s FHS Mustangs are inspiring the next generation.
We’re ready for another great year! 💙🤍
