Autumn Washington is an incredible sophomore player at Ardrey Kell. She is an efficient scorer around the hoop for the Sabers. This past week, she scored 37 points and collected 17 rebounds in a win over South Mecklenburg High School. She also scored 21 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in another win over Cuthbertson. This season, Washington is scoring from everywhere on the basketball court.
Highlights
Sarah Strong and Grace Christian are currently undefeated. Strong is scoring over 20 points and collecting over 16 rebounds per night. There is not a weakness to Strong’s game. She can hit the three, she can score in the paint, earn – and convert – trips to the foul line, and Strong is an exceptional passer. Each game, Strong drops over 4 assists to her teammates. She is also the Crusaders leader in steals and blocked shots per contest.
Peyton Harvey is a tremendous guard from A.C. Reynolds. She has a picture-perfect jump shot and the ability to knock down multiple three-pointers in any game for the Rockets. Harvey is a talented player who can change a game on offense or on defense. She is willing to pressure the basketball on D and rebounds well from the guard position. In a recent win over Asheville High School, Harvey scored 20 points, tracked down 6 rebounds, passed for 5 assists, and forced 2 steals.
Highlights
Leena McField is averaging over 21 points per game for Northern Guilford in her freshman season. She is an elite talent who leads her team in scoring. McField is shooting over 40% from behind the three-point line, and 44% from the field. She is a fantastic athlete on the basketball court. McField also leads her team in rebounds per game. She attacks the glass and averages over 7 rebounds per night.
Samantha Shehan has been dominant on the court for Lake Norman in the 2023-2024 season. She has been shooting the basketball with confidence, creating for her teammates, and rebounding with urgency on both offense and defense. Shehan has a super-quick release and can shoot from deep behind the three-point line. When the defender goes under a ball screen while guarding Shehan, she reads the defense and drains the outside shot. She is an outstanding junior with huge potential on the court for the Wildcats.
