In 2023-24, Landrum has re-established its status as one of the teams to beat in the 2A ranks. A big reason for the success of Jared St. Charles’ Cardinals has been the play of his star two guard. The Cardinals successfully defended The Cage against 5A Boiling Springs to close out the girls portion of Battle at the Border’s first day. Cortez tallied 17 points. She is an efficient runner of the floor including moving very quickly with the ball in her hands. A 3-point shot is part of Cortez’s offensive arsenal and she understands when the right times are to score when to pass.
