• Men's Basketball Adds Haggerty to 2026-27 Roster - Texas A&M Athletics (12thman.com) — A standout college basketball scorer with deep local roots is heading to Texas A&M: guard PJ Haggerty, a Crosby native, has committed as a graduate transfer for the 2026-27 season. After starring at Kansas State and previously excelling at Memphis and Tulsa, he brings elite scoring and national honors to the Aggies. His rise from Crosby to major-conference stardom is a point of local pride. 
• Funding fight heats up over Houston's newly passed ICE ordinance (khou.com) — State leaders are pressuring Houston to repeal a new immigration ordinance, and Governor Greg Abbott delivered some of his toughest warnings while speaking in Crosby this week. He says Houston could be forced to return $110 million in public safety funds, and the attorney general has now sued the city over the policy. Crosby residents are watching a nearby political and legal showdown that could shape regional law enforcement funding and cooperation with ICE.
