Expert Analysis
Kyle Sandy | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Taliah had an electrifying first quarter that set the tone in Maynard Jackson’s destruction of Union Grove, 80-55. Cornish netted 11 points in the opening frame and finished with 25 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists. The lightning quick playmaker scored from all three levels. Cornish scored with both hands downhill. She does a good job getting to her spots and can burn defenders that try to run her off the three-point line with her off the dribble game.

The 2022-23 campaign was a banner one for Cornish and her 5A Jaguars. She became the fourth woman in the history of Maynard Jackson HS to reach the 1,000-point plateau. She led the Jaguars to a 26-2 record last season and a berth in the 5A state semifinals. Cornish tallied 18 points in that state semifinal contest against Kell. When it is not the red and gold of Maynard Jackson she is sporting, she runs on the travel circuit with Zone 6 Celtics Black. Among her many strong attributes that poses problems for opponents is how quickly she can get a shot up with the ball and her high hoops IQ.

checks the boxes. She had Maynard Jackson playing as well as anyone at camp. When the Jags needed a big shot, it was Cornish they turned to. In a separate three-point shooting drill, Cornish graded out as one of the top shooters in camp.

is a game changer at guard. The lightweight playmaker can pinball her way through defenses, cutting them up as she gets to the hoop. She has the ball on a string and can create her own offense off the dribble. She averaged 19.3 points per game.
