Top Hillsborough County Teams:

Plant – Returning Kendal Cheesman (Vanderbilt commit) and Nyla Jean(Georgia State commit) from last seasons final 4 team will still make Plant the top team to beat in Hillsborough county.

Tampa Bay Tech – The number #2 player in the country for the class of 2022, Janiah Barker and Amiya Evans who’s the number #46 player in the class of 2022 gives TBT a BIG 1-2 punch. The X- Factor will be Mya Lamar who transferred in from Strawberry Crest. Plus, guard play can be an issue.

Brooks-DeBartolo – Returning the whole core of last years team has Brooks trying to make a run to Lakeland this season. Saint Leo commit Triniti Youngblood leads the way.

Seffner Christian Academy– The addition of high scoring guard Kailyn Gilbert to go along with Chimera Iloanya (Tenn.Tech commit) an Tajah Spaulding have seffner looking to make a big run at states this season.

Armwood – The Lady Hawks will return all conference player in Ta’viyanna Habib along with young players Keyara Bromley and Maraya Cheek. Look for the Hawks under Coach Ben Bromley to have a big year this season.

Carrollwood Day School –Losing multiple players to next level commitments, CDS still has a core with top players like Milahnie Perry, Aryana Dizon and with recent transfer 2021 Olivia Delancy this team may gel faster than we think.
