Santana really has a good overall motor on the floor. She constantly stays active from side to side and end to end. Reese will work to defend on the ball and create a side of havoc in the passing lanes. Santana was constantly bringing positive energy to the floor to her teammates all day long.
Highlights
Hammond was a last-minute sign up and she surely played well. Unfortunately, her photo didn’t turn out well – we went back to the summer. Hammond is an undersized shooting guard. She really likes to set up camp behind the three-point line.
Keyosha is a SHOOTER who can score the rock from all 3 levels. She showed a nice mid-range pull-up in transition. Hammond surely don’t lack confidence on the floor. She previously attended North HS before heading over to Airport HS.
Spratley plays the game to the fullest at all times when she is on the floor. She is a physical guard who really likes to use her body and fight off defenders. Krystian will jump on the deck and come away with a 50/50 ball a good portion of the time. Spratley takes pride on the defensive end of the floor with her on the ball pressure.
What can you say about Sabreya you don’t already know? She really has started to expand her game to the backcourt a bit more. Sabreya brought the ball up the floor on number of occasions today. She was able to finish with both hands at the bucket.
Monsanto can play multiple positions on the floor and post up smaller defenders. She’s a tremendous communicator on and off the floor with her teammates. Sabreya wants to WIN and she does WIN period.
Vaughn a left-handed guard was able to run the show here at times today from out top. London kept the ball close to her vest and really did a nice job of finding the open teammate on the floor. She connected on a few short jumpers when the opportunity came. Look for London to have another big season for the Lady Knights up in Dalzell.
Alexander loves to play the game physical. She does just that down in the paint area where she looks to overpower players. Ayona uses her body well to draw contact and go to work scoring the rock around the cup.
Alexander has a nice touch close to the basket. She will rebound on both ends of the floor. Ayona surely, won’t leave a game unless she has used all her fouls up. Alexander is ranked #2 in the 2026 Palmetto State Girls Class.
Rush brings a great attitude and work ethic to the floor at all times. Ava made the move this off season to head over to First Baptist located in Downtown Charleston. She previously played at Oceanside Collegiate.
Ava a small forward rebounds the ball well from her wing position on the floor and really likes to put the ball on the deck. She can drive by defenders with the dribble or simply pull-up with the jumper. Ava has good range on her shot out to the three-point line. Rush is a worker for sure – she loves the game and constantly gets better every time out. Maybe a future a Stock-Riser before the next rankings updated next month?
Highlights
Jenkins is a new addition to the 2026 Palmetto State Class after moving into North Augusta HS. She previously attended Hepzibah HS just outside of Augusta, GA. Montana an off guard was able to drop some perimeter jumpers here today. She received the ball well and seemed ready to shoot it when the ball touched her hands. Montana averaged 8 ppg last season as a freshman over in the State of Georgia.
She will be a great addition to this Lady Yellow Jackets roster this season.
Smith was a nice surprise here today with her play and confidence on the floor. Briana plays extremely hard and really takes pride in playing defense. She was constantly in hustle mode when she wasn’t dropping a 3-ball from behind the arc. Smith brought a great attitude and a willingness to work all day long. Look for her to be one of the leaders for the Lady Braves this coming season.
