Lytch didn’t play this summer after getting hurt. His status to start the season is uncertain.
Da’Mori gives the Tigers a rim – protector and shot blocker down low. He can run the floor and fill the lane in transition very well. Lytch has a long wingspan to defend and alter shots on the defensive end.
Brown will step-up and lead the Bruins squad this coming season. Jamari has nice mid-range game and the ability to create his own shot off the bounce.
Brown is best suited off the ball and more as a scoring option. e will have to do just that this season for the Bruins score the ball.
Beaton gives the Knights a piece in the middle to go with good perimeter play already on this squad. Grant made the move over this off season from nearby King’s Academy.
Beaton likes to play rugged down low and has no problems at all mixing it up in the paint.
Wilson plays in the southern part of the county for the Flashes. Wilson is a bit of an undersized post who averaged 10 ppg and 6.7 rebounds last season.
Travis plays football in the fall also for the Class 1A school.
Terrence will be counted on more this season for the Bruins down in the paint. Moorer and the Bruins hope to improve on a (7-15) record from last season.
Terrence will play with his back to the basket and post up. He can step-up and face-out to the basket at times.
Adams recently transferred into Lake City HS from Central HS in Pageland. Amare is a beat on the gridiron and on the hardwood.
Adams will be a welcome addition to the basketball roster with his ability to knock around defenders and carve out space. Amare has great MITTS to catch anything thrown in his direction.
Look for Thompson be a Stock-Riser in the future with his play this summer. Tristan has made his way over to Wilson HS after playing last season at Trinity Collegiate.
Tristan brings a good skill set and versatility to the roster for the Tigers. He will fit in quite well with this Tiers roster and Head Coach Carlos Powell.
Robinson didn’t play at all this summer on the High School and Grassroots Circuit. Jackson came over last season from Trinity Collegiate and joined the Bruins.
He does a good job of keeping the ball up high. Robinson must get stronger down low with his hands at times.
The Bruins have some pieces this season to make some noise on any given night.
Highlights
Brown is a long and rangy forward who brings good activity to the floor at all times. Karon just glides over the floor effortlessly at times it seems.
Brown and Adams in the paint could really make some noise in Class 3A this season for Head Coach Stan Adams.
Davis a guard for the Bruins will provide a solid 1-2 punch in the backcourt with Jamarie Brown Jamarie Brown 6’3″ | PG South Florence | 2024 State SC . Davis will be a new name to monitor for the Bruins moving forward after playing on the Grassroots Circuit this past season with Upward Stars Pee Dee 15U.
Bruce made the transfer over from South Florence HS. Khristian saw some action last season for the Bruins as 8th grader on the varsity level.
What role will he take on this coming season for the Knights?
Will Leonard be at Wilson HS this fall playing for the Tigers? Josh is just an 8th grader with a very bright future.
He will be a name to monitor down the road from the City of Florence that’s for sure.
