Team South Carolina:
Jeremy Cook Jeremy Cook 5'9" | PG JL Mann | 2024 State SC – J.L. Mann HS
Cook was only eligible a semester last season for the Patriots. He does a nice job of penetrating-kicking to open mates for good looks. Jeremy really looks to push the tempo from out top.
Zayn Valentine Zayn Valentine 5'11" | PG Greer | 2024 State SC – Greer HS
Valentine recently made the move over to Greer HS and enrolled. Zayn previously was at J.L. Mann HS. Valentine will finish with both hands at the cup while playing the game in attack mode.
Musa Muriithi Musa Muriithi 6'2" | CG Greer Middle College | 2024 State SC – Greer Middle College
Muriithi has been a staple here for the past few years. Musa brings good effort and smart play while on the floor. He always seems to be under control with his passing skills and shot selection.
Rylan Jones Rylan Jones 6'1" | CG Riverside | 2024 State SC – Riverside HS
Jones has a good stroke from behind the arc. He needs to be monitored by defenses at all times with his ability to make perimeter jumpers.
Tanner Epps Tanner Epps 5'11" | SG T.L. Hanna | 2024 State SC – T.L. Hanna HS (Anderson)
Epps is a SHOOTER while on the floor. He can surely beat you from deep while on the floor. Tanner does a nice job of receiving the ball in the pocket and being shot ready to receive the ball.
Jack Pfister Jack Pfister 6'5" | PF Greer Middle College | 2024 State SC – Greer Middle College
Pfister has a soft touch around the paint area. Jack keeps the ball up high after claiming it off the glass. He really works for position in the paint. Pfister can step out to the short corner or elbow and knockdown the jumper.
JR Peterson – Legacy Early College
JR is a loose change guy with good length. Peterson is more of defensive guy.
Charlie Streetman Charlie Streetman 6'1" | SG Woodmont | 2025 State SC – Woodmont HS
Streetman is the youngest guy on this roster as a sophomore. Charlie comes off the bench as a role player.
Jsaiah Geer – Westside HS
Geer didn’t play the day we saw Team SC play in the Ashton Arnold Memorial Tourney.
La’Marion Scott La’Marion Scott 6'3" | SF Westside | 2023 State SC – Westside HS
Scott plays around the basket as a bit of a tweener on the floor. He’s stay active on some put-backs and looks to rebound on both ends. Scott a UNSIGNED Senior plays the game extremely unselfish. La’Marion is more of a wing player than anything else on the floor.
