The offers have continued to pour in for one of the Palmetto State’s premier 2025s since our last update. With Jacobs continuing to shine on the club circuit with Palmetto 76ers/A’ja Wilson Elite , more Division I offers have come her way. This past month, Mississippi State, Georgia, Clemson and George Mason have extended offers in the direction of the veteran star out of SCISA 4A Heathwood Hall. With so many accolades she has compiled at the high school level, Jacobs will head into the 2024-25 season looking to close her Highlanders career with an exclamation point – and with a good problem – plenty of offers to mull over.

Jacobs has continued her hot play all spring long with a strong showing here today. Lauren the top player in the 2025 Palmetto State Class has picked up several more offers this past month from the likes of Clemson, Georgia, George Mason, Mississippi State and Seton Hall to name a few.
Lauren really has a great feel for the game and a knack when it comes to scoring the ball. She’s certainly a 3-level scorer on the floor. Lauren can really take over a game in a hurry with her crafty passing skills, shot making or simply with her quick hands on the defensive end of the court. She can finish at the cup with either hand very effectively.

Lauren is a bucket getter and can really fill up the score sheet in a hurry. She does a nice job of fight off defenders on the way to the bucket. Lauren finishes so many baskets at the rim and in transition. She plays the game with a good deal of confidence and surely wants the ball in crunch time.
Lauren can manufacture buckets on both ends of the floor with her quick hands-on defense and shot making on the offensive end.
