CMC Thanksgiving Tournament: Youth Movement

Prep Girls Hoops journeyed up to the Northern part of Horry County to attend the Conway Medical Center Thanksgiving Tournament at Green Sea Floyds HS earlier this week. The 8-team field featured a variety of schools from around the Palmetto State. Prep Girls Hoops walked away with a few new names to add to the database for sure in the years to come. Read more firs about some young ladies coming up from the middle school ranks to contribute at the high school level. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-356319" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/B6F79B49-9D9F-41E7-BAB5-2760FFB08D46.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="305000" first="Madison" last="McCain"] (2025) - Fox Creek HS (pictured on front)</strong> McCain was great today in the post for the Lady Predators. Madison recorded 21 points and 19 rebounds according to my own unofficial stats. McCain does such a great job of seal the defender, using her body to draw contact and keeping the ball up high after rebounding it. Madison understands where her bread is buttered down in the paint near the basket. She has GREAT HANDS and soft footwork to work both sides of the paint. Madison plays with her back to the basket for the most part while really looking to go to work down inside the paint. Madison NEVER took a play off day while on the floor. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-356318" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/7CEE94A3-7DBB-447A-AE2C-3241C38078A7.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="342513" first="Janiya" last="Richburg"] (2025) - Loris HS </strong> Richburg is as TOUGH AS A $2 DOLLAR STEAK. Janiya helps you win games with her play on the floor. Richburg actually played last season as 8th grader at Green Sea Floyds HS. Janiya left-handed forward brings good versatility to the floor and even a better demeanor. Janiya plays bigger than her size on both ends of the floor. She will grab a rebound on the defensive end of the floor and at times dribble it up or find a teammate with a good outlet pass. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-356314" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/2FC8031D-9D3F-4667-863C-2B33CABD0FBE.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="353260" first="Teanna" last="Perry"] (2025) - Loris HS </strong> Perry struggled at times today and tried to do too much for the Lady Lions. Teanna brings a fearless attitude and mindset to the floor for Lady Lions Head Coach Douglas Gause. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="355643" first="Danyri" last="Leggette"] (2025) - Carolina Forest HS </strong> Leggette came off the bench for the Lady Panthers and made a few key plays to help them secure the victory. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/E0A6F396-650F-4CEE-BA34-8A3C5029F720-crop-1129x741-1637834369.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-356322" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/E0A6F396-650F-4CEE-BA34-8A3C5029F720-crop-1129x741-1637834369-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="356320" first="D’Essence" last="Graham"] (2025) - Carvers Bay HS </strong> Graham made a good showing for the Lady Bears by scoring a baker’s dozen in a loss to Marlboro Academy. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-356316" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/2EE89ABA-A4CC-4F54-97DA-3CE25F71B449.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="355638" first="Shantavia" last="Hilliard"] (2026) - Green Sea Floyds HS</strong> Hilliard helped the Lady Trojans win in overtime today by scoring 14 points. Shantavia is a sleek wing player still trying to figure out how to play hard every possession on the floor. She did her best job scoring the ball in transition for the Lady Trojans. Shanavia who is just a 8th grader should pick up plenty of game time experience this season for Head Coach Tracy Kienast. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-355988" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/11/CA034906-F90F-49BA-87B6-DB7C58833EE4.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /> <strong> [player_tooltip player_id="355639" first="Miracle" last="McLean"] (2026) - Carolina Forest HS </strong> Miracle is just what Lady Panthers Head Coach Stacy Hughes wanted on her roster. McLean 6’1 post runs the floor extremely well while gliding from side to side. Miracle is still RAW on the offense end of the floor. McLean has picked up good skills along the way already while being extremely active on both sides of the floor. &nbsp; <em><strong>Final Day Results from the Conway Medical Center Thanksgiving Tournament:</strong></em> 7th Place: Green Sea Floyds defeated Andrews HS 43-39 (Overtime) 5th Place: Fox Creek HS defeated Hannah-Pamplico HS 45-26 3rd Place: Marlboro Academy defeated Carvers Bay 44-38 Championship: Carolina Forest defeated Loris 29-21
