Twitty made her commitment announcement that she will be heading to Columbia International University to play her college ball. Before she starts her college journey in the Midlands, she has a bit more business to take care of with her current high school team – Chapman. The Panthers are currently in the playoffs and earned a 55-32 victory over Belton-Honea Path in the first round of this year's 3A tournament. Twitty scored 18 points that game and has averaged 14.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.9 steals per contest this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["429827"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1588464,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-699736be0d535"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Delaney became the latest of the three marquee seniors that comprise 4A A.C. Flora to announce her college plans. She too will remain in-state as she has committed to Francis Marion University – which has a track record of landing premier Palmetto State talent. Delaney is currently competing in the playoffs with the Falcons who scored an opening round victory over Laurens. She put together a 14-points, five-rebound, three-assist, two-steal outing in that contest. Delaney and her Falcons are set to take on Daniel in the second round of the tournament. She has averaged 7.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.4 steals per matchup. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["280466"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1561845,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-699736be0d5b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mazyck magic will make its way to the Midlands. Part of a loaded senior class at 5A Division 1 Wando, Mazyck declared that she will play her collegiate ball at Columbia College. Prior to her transitioning to play for the Koalas' coach Toccara Toland, Mazyck looks to help the Warriors with one more deep run in the tournament. The Warriors began this season's tournament in commanding fashion by virtue of a 91-21 victory over Stall. She has averaged 6.7 points, 5.1 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals per matchup. Mazyck and her Wando assembling are set to travel to Summerville's Fire House for the second round of this season's playoffs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["438237"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1379464,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-699736be0d61c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Oliver continues the theme of the most recent collegiate commits all electing to keep their talents in-state. She announced that she will wear the colors of Erskine College once her senior campaign with 5A Division 2 Greenwood concludes. That senior campaign has resulted in another tournament berth for the Eagles. Greenwood earned a first-round bye and is set to battle Nation Ford in the second round of the 5A Division 2 tournament. Oliver is the team's leading bucket-getter as she has averaged 19.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 3.8 steals in the 24 games she has played. She led Greenwood to a 5A Division 2 Upper State championship last season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["438236"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-699736be0d672"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Both Oliver twins at Greenwood decided to head to Erskine College for their college careers. She also was another key factor in the Eagles' run to the 5A Division 2 Upper State championship this season. As Greenwood prepares for its second-round postseason clash with Nation Ford, the Falcons need to find a way to contain Oliver as she has been another of the team leaders in scoring. She is averaging 12.2 points per game. Oliver is the Eagles' leader in assists as she has dished out 4.9 dimes per contest and is tied with her twin sister in steals (3.8 per matchup). </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["610465"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-699736be0d6b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the latest commitments occurred by way of 5A Division 1 J.L. Mann. McKinney announced that she will be heading to Converse for her college journey. She has played in 25 games this season while averaging 7.9 points per game for the Patriots. This year's 5A Division 1 tournament began with J.L. Mann earning a tough victory over Ridge View and the Patriots will have their hands full in the second round as they travel to another tough out in Mauldin – which was ranked fourth in the most recent 5A Division 1 coaches' poll. McKinney is one of five Patriots seniors that is part of J.L. Mann's 2026 graduating class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
