Today the Stampede defeated a scrappy South Carolina Hornets squad behind the strong play of guard <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='429823' first='Jalaiya' last='Jacobs'] </strong>and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='365237' first='Amani' last='McCray']</strong>. This duo led the charge with 14 points and 7 points respectively in the win. Jacobs was able to get the ball to the basket and times and convert some easy buckets. McCray plays a little bit everywhere on the floor for the Stampede. Armani brings good versatility with her ability to handle the rock and rebound well on both ends of the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Rogers Just a Freshman:</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":904964,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/eZy-Watermark_06-05-2024_09-59-50-8300PM-crop-2608x1712-1715047728.jpeg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-904964" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Projection is the name of the game and at times it surely doesn't come down to stats.<strong> [player_tooltip player_id='890743' first='Jada' last='Rogers']</strong> is a post presence in the paint for the [program_tooltip program_id='883205' first='South' last='Carolina Future'] 16U UA Rise. Rogers already has good size for her age and the question is how will she progress in the years to come. Jada has no problems playing on contact at all down in the paint. She currently attends Hampton County HS in the Lowcountry. Rogers is playing up a age group currently this Grassroots season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Birch and Moore Play Up: </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":904961,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/eZy-Watermark_06-05-2024_10-00-04-7380PM-crop-3130x2056-1715047654.jpeg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-904961" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='324560' first='Maliyah' last='Birch']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='403039' first='Gabby' last='Moore'] </strong>both play up on the [program_tooltip program_id='713840' first='Charleston' last='Raptors'] 17U squad.

These two ladies will both be the future of their programs moving forward in the years to come. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
