Maya Robinson Maya Robinson 5’9″ | SF NC GBB | 2023 State NC has a way of taking over games. As she was feeling the momentum shift away from her team she used tough defense and aggressive offense to get some points driving hard to the hoop. She then showed off her shot from deep. She’s certainly a versatile athlete ready to take her talents to Charleston Southern next season.
Jael Poole
Jael Poole
Jael Poole was all over the court grabbing rebounds and steals and pushing it the other way. She did a nice job driving hard to the hoop getting old fashioned three point plays to extend the lead late in the game. She moves well without the ball making sure she gets open to bring the ball up the court. She has some nice hesitation moves that she uses to create space and find her open teammates.
Lily Pereira Lily Pereira 5’10” | CG Wesleyan Christian Academy | 2023 State NC does a nice job reading the floor moving to fill in the gaps even when she doesn’t have the ball. She’s quick on defense jumping into passing lanes to grab the steal. She gets to the hoop keeping the ball away from her defenders and making it roll off her fingertips into the hoop. She even made a tough bucket against three defenders. She got inside to grab rebounds, too.

McKenzie Graves showed off her range from deep. She moved without the ball to find the gaps and shift the defense. She did a nice job knowing when to pull up for her jump shot instead of taking it all the way to the hoop. She had a nice drive and pop up shot in the middle of the paint while she was patient letting the play develop.
