DaNariyah likes to do a little bit of everything at time while on the floor. She really looks to battle when it comes to grabbing a rebound, put-back on the glass, running the floor and even handling the rock up the floor in transition. DaNariyah plays relentless on the glass and constantly competes all game long. She really lacks a true position right now but for certain just make sure she's on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Williams averaged 10.2 ppg, 8.9 rebounds and 4.3 steals a season ago. The Lady Eagles lost in the Lower State Championship Game to Lake View HS 52-46. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["380996"],"_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-66b74edfbb3cc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Herman made the move this off season back to Latta HS. Kaliya a left-handed off guard really likes to operate from behind the three-point line. She played last season at nearby Trinity Collegiate in Darlington which plays in the SCISA ranks. Kaliya will be counted on for a big season for the Lady Vikings this year over in the Pee Dee. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["562109"],"_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-66b74edfbb409"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">House is not a very familiar name outside the Pee Dee area. Naomi anchors down the middle of the paint for the Lady Panthers. Naomi will contest and challenge shots on the defensive end of the floor when needed. She does a nice job of keeping the ball up high after claiming it off the glass. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>House is surely an unknown as she rarely plays on the Grassroots Circuit out the area. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["370269"],"_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-66b758488d86f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Holmes will be back later in the season for the Lady Stallions. She missed second semester of action last season. Holmes a physical post player really understands on how to carve out space and work down low. She is the daughter of former Gamecock and Coastal Carolina University player Michael Holmes. Mykeriyah will be a welcome addition to this squad when region play starts up. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Lady Stallions moved up to the Lower State this season after dropping down from Class 2A. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["405365"],"_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-66b74edfbb47b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kailen made the move down to North HS after playing at Lexington HS. Kailen followed her dad Keith Parks who coaches the boy's program at North HS. She really is starting to get back into form after having some injuries over the past year. She will be a welcome addition to the Lady Eagles at the Class 1A level for certain. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["840352"],"_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-66b74edfbb4b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Williams plays all over the floor with her ability to work on both ends of the court. She plays extremely hard and at times looks to bully defenders with her physical play. Ezariah will work the short corner but seems to be at her best around the paint area just playing active and running down loose balls. Ezariah excels on the hardwood along with playing volleyball in the fall and track &amp; field in the spring for the Lady Raiders. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Keep in mind on SATURDAY September 7, 2024, in Rock Hill, SC is the Carolina Showcase Expo.
