It’s NEVER an easy task to pick just a handful of players. These players stood out in performance this weekend from the 2022-2023 class from here at the CHNY Showcase at Cardinal Newman.
Ashlyn Watkins Ashlyn Watkins 6'4" | PF Cardinal Newman | 2022 State #11 Nation SC (2022) – Cardinal Newman
Watkins capped off her second game vs Gray Collegiate with a dunk just before time expired on Day 2. Ashlyn patrolled the paint so well all weekend long for the Lady Cardinals. Watkins showed why she’s the #1 player in the 2022 Palmetto State Class and staying home next season for the Lady Gamecocks. Ashlyn does a great job of protecting the rim and claiming every rebound that comes her way. Watkins finished Day 2 vs Gray Collegiate with 20 points, 18 rebounds and 4 blocks shots.
Anala Nelson Anala Nelson 5'8" | CG Lower Richland | 2022 State SC (2022) – Lower Richland HS (Hopkins)
Nelson had it on cruise at times today for the Lady Diamonds. Anala does such a good job of finishing at the basket with great body control. Nelson plays the game so composed while on the floor dropping floaters and perimeter jumpers at will. Anala really anticipates well in the passing lanes to pick up steals and turn them into easy buckets going the other way. She will take her skills to Clarksville, TN next year and Austin Peay University.
Tyra Myers Tyra Myers 5'6" | PG Hammond | 2022 State SC (2022) – Hammond (pictured on front)
Tyra spends more time on the floor diving for loose balls, taking charges and just hustling for everything. Myers can really impact a game on both ends of the floor with her play. Tyra can fill it up in a hurry to the tune of 29 points in a win over Dutch Fork HS. She really impacts a game with her solid passing skills, setting up her teammates for open looks, rebounding from her guard position and better yet taking quality high percentage shots. Tyra is headed to the Big Apple next fall to play at St Francis College in Brooklyn.
Maia Brown Maia Brown 5'6" | PG Dutch Fork | 2022 State SC (2022) – Dutch Fork HS
Brown was a pleasant surprise today for the Lady Silver Foxes. Maia scored 20 points in the one-point defeat to Hammond. She was able to knockdown some timely buckets to get the Lady Silver Foxes into the game. Brown showed good composure and a willingness not to quit when her team was down. Maia had a strong showing today that should carry over to the rest of the season.
Ashari Lewis Ashari Lewis 5'9" | SF Keenan | 2022 State SC (2023) – Keenan HS
Lewis is for sure the 2nd option on the Lady Raiders team behind Milaysia Fulwiley Milaysia Fulwiley 5'8" | PG Keenan | 2023 State #9 Nation SC . Ashari stepped up on the opening night win vs Cardinal Newman when she scored 20 points. Ashari was able to score the ball from all 3 levels on the floor this evening. Lewis showed a nice mid-range game at times and then took it out behind the three-point line. Ashari recently picked up an offer from Winston-Salem State University earlier this fall.
Milaysia Fulwiley Milaysia Fulwiley 5'8" | PG Keenan | 2023 State #9 Nation SC (2023) – Keenan HS
What can you not say about Milaysia Fulwiley Milaysia Fulwiley 5'8" | PG Keenan | 2023 State #9 Nation SC . Milaysia can really impact the game on both ends of the floor. She at times looks to be 2-3 steps ahead of everyone on the floor. Fulwiley dropped a cool 41 points and 6 assists tonight in a win over Cardinal Newman. Milaysia has no shortage of confidence in her skills and playmaking ability that’s for sure a fact. Milaysia the #1 player in the 2023 Palmetto State Class has the Lay Raiders in line for another State Championship come next March.
