<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="175309" first="Jaida" last="Cameron"] (2024) - Wilson HS (Florence)</strong>
Cameron looks to be on the move back to the Lady Tigers for next season. Jaida played last season at Trinity Collegiate. Cameron a left-handed guard can take the ball coast to coast and knife through defenders on the way down the floor. Jaida has improved on her perimeter shooting and feels most comfortable with the ball in her hands as a creator on the floor.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="239707" first="Ariana" last="Johnson"] (2024) - Wilson HS (Florence)</strong>
Johnson is an undersized shooting guard. Ariana plays the game more comfortable as a shooter on the floor. She was able to connect on some mid-range jumpers along with dialing up a few from downtown today.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="378764" first="Destinee" last="Tiller"] - Eau Claire HS (Columbia) (pictured on front)</strong>
Tiller was a nice surprise with her play today. Destinee was able to slash to the cup when she wasn’t stalking the baseline. She can create her shot while on the floor and for others with her ability to touch the paint at any time. Tiller will be a player in the Midlands will start taking notice of in the future.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="444361" first="Syteria" last="Bethel"] - Eau Claire HS (Columbia)</strong>
Bethel really played well today down in the paint. Syteria is an undersized post who really likes to play the game on contact. She battled down in the paint for position when she wasn’t setting screens for her teammates. Syteria plays the game with a blue-collar approach and mentality, and she will make sure to let you know her presence down low.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="175345" first="Aveion" last="Walker"] - Denmark-Olar HS </strong>
Walker does a little bit of everything for the Lady Vikings on the floor. Aveion can drive the ball to the rack and finish or shoot a short jumper from 10-12 feet. She really does a good job of stuffing the stat sheet in every category when it comes to picking up a rebounding, loose ball, getting in the passing lanes or bringing the ball up the floor.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="342513" first="Janiya" last="Richburg"] - Loris HS </strong>
Janiya a left-handed forward is a pretty good overall athlete for the Lady Lions. Richburg is still a RAW talent that does her best work around the paint area and just playing active on the floor. Janiya is above average passer and can step-out to the short corner for looks from time to time.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="252502" first="Sabri" last="Mitchell"] - Military Magnet (North Charleston)</strong>
Mitchell was coming off an injury she got back earlier this spring playing with TMP on the Grassroots Circuit. Sabri at times looks like she is playing effortlessly around the floor with her ability to glide from side to side. Mitchell does a good job of filling the lane in transition and finishing on the break.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="185416" first="Serenity" last="Woods"] - Legion Collegiate (Rock Hill)</strong>
Woods can really get her shot off from downtown when she gets those feet set. Serenity has a nice quick shot release and tends to shoot the ball at a good percentage for the most part. Woods understands on how to get her shot and always seems to be pocket ready to receive the pass. Serenity has really good shot mechanics on her follow through.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="253658" first="Aubrey" last="Stevenson"] - Legion Collegiate (Rock Hill)</strong>
Aubrey really does a great job of keeping the ball on a string and getting to the basket. Stevenson at times plays ahead of her teammates and needs to just slow down once in a while. Aubrey has uncanny court vision and shiftiness with the ball in her hands. Stevenson and Woods provide a solid 1-2 punch for the Lady Lancers and Head Coach Kevin King.
