Dangerous Teams outside the Top 10: Class 2A
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Therrell</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Therrell has a potent inside-out tandem between MJ McWhorter (14 ppg, 9.4 rpg, 1 apg, 1.5 spg, 2 bpg) and [player_tooltip player_id='3033925' first='Gordon' last='Davis'] (13.5 ppg, 4.6 rpg, 2.8 apg, 2.2 spg). McWhorter is one of the best double-double producers in his class while Davis has enjoyed an explosive offseason as a perimeter scorer. Antwon Young is an important third option who tallied 6.3 points, 1.9 rebounds, 3 assists and 1.7 steals per game.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Kendrick</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Injuries hurt Kendrick down the stretch last season after a hot start. The Cherokees finished 15-12 last season with a state playoff berth. Only two players graduate from Kendrick's top seven producers. The junior class has talent between [player_tooltip player_id='2733893' first='Noah' last='Harris'] (14.4 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.8 apg, 2.8 spg), Jeremiah Johnson (8.8 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 2.5 apg, 2.6 spg) and Revel Edwards (8.4 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 1.9 apg, 1.6 spg). Senior Kasey Lott is effective on the glass, averaging 8.5 points and 7.1 rebounds. Rising freshman Andre Dye could see big minutes early on in his career as a strongly built lead guard with high IQ.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Sumter County</strong></h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Panthers finished 17-13 with a Sweet 16 appearance. Sumter County's first and third leading scorers graduate but 6-foot-6 Omari Woodard is back after the wide receiver averaged 14 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game. AJ Kearse averaged 7.2 points while Lebron Brown and Thomas Mays both made positive contributions as juniors.</p>
