One would be hard-pressed to find someone across North Carolina who put up more eye-popping numbers than Littlejohn. She averaged a double-double this past season with 5A North Gaston – including averaging 31.2 points per game. That is a testament to her status as one of the most dangerous scorers in the state. Add in the fact that she averaged 12.8 rebounds and four steals per contest and one has an all-around playmaker. This included a 50-point outburst against another 5A assembling in Crest. Littlejohn previously played for North Carolina Gems before sporting a Charlotte Monarchs uniform. Her return to the Wildcats sparked a major turnaround at North Gaston as her team earned its first season with a double-digit winning output since 2019-20 – and a berth in the 5A playoffs.
