The Saints added <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2460180' first='Sammy' last='McGuire'] </strong>this off season from nearby Carolina Forest HS. McGuire is a long and rangy slashing wing. Sammy excels in the transition game and brings the Saints some much needed athleticism.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2461235,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-41-51-7640AM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-41-51-7640AM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2461235" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1032754' first='Brayden' last='Hendrix'] </strong>is back in the mix for his senior season for the Saints. Hendrix is a very confident shooter who has no problems from pulling up from deep range. He will be joined by<strong> [player_tooltip player_id='2356568' first='Sabion' last='Sessions']</strong> who has really started to improve his game down in the paint. Sessions a thick back to the basket post player has a soft set of hands and has no problems being a mover-screener on the floor at times. Sessions recently joined <strong>[program_tooltip program_id='2413030' first='Middleton' last='Hoops Elite']</strong> on the Grassroots Circuit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1998734' first='Ayden' last='Leith'] </strong>and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2012646' first='Aubrey' last='Hall'] </strong>were both sitting out here today for the Saints with injuries. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Can the Saints make a move in SCISA Class 3A this season?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Seahawk Duo Will Lead the Way: </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2461238,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-40-34-7680AM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-40-34-7680AM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2461238" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1295795' first='James' last='Watson']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2460183' first='Matthew' last='Campbell']</strong> will have to lead the way this season for the Seahawks. Watson a scoring guard really likes to fire up shots from the perimeter. James will take tough shots at times from the mid-range to downtown. Watson will be one of the reliable scorers this season for the Seahawks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2461233,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-42-21-6360AM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-42-21-6360AM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2461233" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Campbell is an absolute blur on the floor at times. Matthew is quick as a hiccup with the ball at times. He will tend to overhandle at times, but he surely had no problems touching the paint and getting into the gaps here today. Campbell is quite shifty with the rock in his hands and was able to change directions quite easily racing by defenders today.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>New Names for the Database: </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2460182' first='Cam' last='Palmer']</strong> - Berkeley HS (Moncks Corner) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Palmer was a nice surprise here today with his play for the Stags. Cam did a good job of seeing the floor and surveying the defense for the Stags. He showed good body control on the way to the cup and was able to stick down some open jumpers along the way. The Stags have a solid core of players to make some noise this season in the Lower State for Head Coach Matt Mullins.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2461232,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-42-36-1540AM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-42-36-1540AM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2461232" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2460188' first='Downtez' last='Evans']</strong> - Stall HS (North Charleston) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Evans didn't play much last season for the Warriors. Downtez kept the ball on string here today at times. He was able to get downhill into the paint and penetrate-kick along the way. He brought a great energy to the floor for the Warriors. Evans has a very athletic frame and plays football in the fall for the Warriors.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2461237,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-41-23-9650AM.jpeg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/eZy-Watermark_13-06-2024_04-41-23-9650AM.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-2461237" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2460186' first='Sutton' last='Cooper']</strong> - Waccamaw HS (Pawleys Island)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cooper likes to set up shop out on the wing behind the 3-point line. Sutton is best suited as a catch-shoot guy. He was able to connect on open jumpers and he was always ready to receive the ball in the pocket for the Warriors. Cooper will be instrumental in the Warriors plans this coming season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
