The four Jordan sisters, stars on and off the basketball court, leave Southlake Carroll

Must read

Milania, Gianna, Natalia and Nadia Jordan made headlines last season by being four sisters who all started and starred for Southlake Carroll, one of the best girls basketball teams in the state. They gained national attention when they all appeared on the Kelly Clarkson Show in May.

But they will be playing at a new school next season, as a Southlake Carroll official told The Dallas Morning News on Saturday that the four girls have unenrolled from the Class 6A school. The girls’ father, Walsh Jordan, did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment.

The school official didn’t know which school they are headed to, but a possible landing spot is rumored to be Oak Cliff Faith Family. When asked Saturday if the Jordan sisters are going to be attending the UIL charter school, Faith Family coach Andrea Robinson said “I can’t speak on that.”

Robinson did say Saturday that four-star point guard Finley Chastain, one of the top recruits in the nation in the Class of 2027, has enrolled at Faith Family. Chastain, rated the 10th-best player in the nation in her class, spent her freshman year at national champion Montverde Academy, a prep school in Florida.

Going into Carroll’s regional semifinal loss to South Grand Prairie, the Jordan sisters had averaged 51.7 points in the playoffs — 80% of Carroll’s scoring. There is about a one-year difference in age from one sister to the next.

Milania Jordan was the District 4-6A MVP and an all-state selection as a junior and averaged 17.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 2.4 steals. She tore her ACL this spring.

Like Milania, Gianna was a TGCA all-state selection, and Carroll posted on X on June 1 that she has received offers from Memphis, Clemson, UNLV and North Texas recently. Gianna, Natalia and Nadia were first-team all-district selections, and Gianna and Natalia will be juniors next season and Nadia will be a sophomore.
