Ashlyn Watkins Ashlyn Watkins 6'4" | PF Cardinal Newman | 2022 State #11 Nation SC – Cardinal Newman
Watkins has 3 state championships in her pocket along with being the #1 player in the 2022 Palmetto State Class.

Tiana Spann Tiana Spann 6'2" | PF First Baptist | 2022 State SC – First Baptist (Charleston)
Spann is off the board and headed to Winthrop University next season. Winthrop plays in the Big South Conference.
Nadia Dial Nadia Dial 6'0" | PF Fort Mill | 2022 State SC – Fort Mill HS (pictured on front)
Dial had a strong summer playing with the Lady Attack Elite program. Nadia feels very comfortable playing face-up to the basket as a stretch 4 man. Dial feels very comfortable putting the ball on the floor and knocking down perimeter jumpers. Nadia played with Lady Attack Elite 2022 this past summer.
Ashari Lewis Ashari Lewis 5'9" | SF Keenan | 2022 State SC – Keenan HS
Ashari has the pleasure of playing with Milaysia Fulwiley Milaysia Fulwiley 5'8" | PG Keenan | 2023 State #9 Nation SC #1 player in the 2023 Palmetto State Class. Lewis has won the past 2 Class 3A State Championships with the Lady Raiders. Ashari can play face-up to the basket with her ability to hit perimeter jumpers. Lewis brings good versatility to the floor with her ability to defend in the paint and out on the perimeter. Can the Lady Raiders 3-Peat this coming season ?
Quantashia Davis Quantashia Davis 6'0" | PF Aiken | 2022 State SC – Aiken HS
Davis can really manufacture points around the basket with her constant activity. Quantashia runs the very well from the forward position and covers a lot of ground in the passing lanes. Davis has a good nose for the ball and will score on several put-backs close to the basket.
Talayah Hamilton Talayah Hamilton 6'0" | PF Strom Thurmond | 2022 State SC – Strom Thurmond HS (Johnston)
Hamilton recently had ACL surgery. Hamilton averaged 9.3 ppg this past season for the Lady Rebels in just 8 games played.
Jailyn Oree Jailyn Oree 5'9" | PF Keenan | 2022 State SC – Keenan HS
Oree was one of my favorites this summer playing with her constant production. Jailyn knows her game is inside the paint and there’s where she plays. Jailyn does all the dirty work of rebounding the ball at a high rate. Prep Girls Hoops saw her play 4 times this summer and one-time playing with a broken toe and sprained finger. Oree secured 17 rebounds in this game back in July. She is TOUGH and she has won 2 state championships for the Lady Raiders.
Taia Gattis Taia Gattis 6'1" | PF Cross | 2022 State SC – Cross HS
Gattis has been in retirement it seems from the hardwood. Gattis plays volleyball in the fall for the Lady Trojans. Tai averaged 9 ppg and 8.7 rebounds this past season shortened Covid-19 season.
Zybreayziah Alexander Zybreayziah Alexander 5'10" | PF West Florence | 2022 State SC – West Florence HS
Alexander is a left-handed post forward who does a good job of rebounding the ball on both ends of the floor. Alexander ran with a local team in One Force on the Grassroots Circuit.
Jasmine Grant Jasmine Grant 6'0" | PF Summerville | 2022 State SC – Summerville HS
Jasmine moves really well around the floor and has the ability to cover a lot of ground. Grant can handle the ball up the floor in transition and at times shows some crafty passing skills. Jasmine is a bit of a late bloomer with her game and keep looking for her to be a Stock Riser down the road for the Lady Green Wave.
