Head Coach Rip Ripley coached in the camp today. This duo plays in the SCISA Class 4A ranks. Humphries a left-handed slender forward likes to play his game on the perimeter. Wilder a junior played aggressive today from the wing for his squad. Ford currently plays football for the Barons as a wide receiver.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>2028 Palmetto State Members</em></strong>:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2622271,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/10/IMG_0343.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/10/IMG_0343.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2622271" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2028 Palmetto State only had a handful of campers in the event today. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2470128' first='Jermier' last='Nelson']</strong>, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2339844' first='Jeremiah' last='Hunter']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2544211' first='Justin' last='Gray Jr'] </strong>all took part in the SCBCA Elite Camp. Nelson will be a name to watch out for this season at Fort Mill HS. Jermier should see plenty of playing for the Yellow Jackets in the backcourt.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hunter who excels on the gridiron as a wide receiver also excels on the hardwood for the Seneca HS Bobcats in the Upstate. Jeremiah is quick as they come on the floor getting the ball into the paint and gaps. He brings a quick set of hands to the table and is extremely tough to stay in front of him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2622268,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/10/IMG_0350.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/10/IMG_0350.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2622268" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gray Jr is a new name down on the Grand Strand this season for the Carolina Forest HS Panthers. He's the son of new Coastal Carolina University Head Coach Justin Gray. Justin was able to warm up at times today from downtown with his shooting ability. He plays the game very mature already for his young age.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Well, this is simply just the start of coverage from the event.
