The Vikings of 5A Division 1 Spartanburg have made plenty of noise this season with its undefeated start to the 2025-26 campaign. Sims spearheaded a Vikings effort with 20 points that completely overwhelmed its adversaries of 2A High Point Academy. Sims may have had more but the contest was so lopsided that it gave her plenty of time to observe the action from the bench. Sims can display her accuracy from behind the 3-point arc but can also finish strong at the cup – either in her team’s half-court offense or in transition. So much of Sims’ offense is a byproduct of her defense and she also greatly bolsters Spartanburg’s rebounding efforts. 

The Lions of NCHSAA 8A West Charlotte gave Spartanburg – the top-ranked team in 5A Division 1 – a stiff test as the Vikings looked to preserve its undefeated season. The seven points that were scored courtesy of Sims played their part in running Spartanburg’s record to 9-0. Sims brings plenty of energy every time she steps on the court – especially on the defensive end of the floor. She can come from seemingly out of nowhere to deflect an opposing team’s pass or collect a steal to give her team an additional offensive possession. One also has to look out for Sims from behind the arc as she has displayed in previous contests that she can be accurate from 3-point range. 

Sims, a Team Goodson notable from the weekend’s event, was one of the names we at Prep Girls Hoops remember from the SC Live Team Camp that took place two months ago at Riverview Park in North Augusta. She concluded her 2025 grassroots season with BBB Elite 2027 E40. She has a high basketball IQ and knows how to get herself in position to make the right plays at the right times. Listed at 5-foot-6, she can give a team worthwhile minutes as either a one or a two. When she attacks the rim, she can do so by either going the full distance to the basket or by connecting on a floater. Sims put together a notable season for 5A Division 2 Spartanburg last season, averaging 10.2 points, 3.3 rebounds and two steals a game for the Vikings.
