What a day it was at the Lady NC Top 80, as not only was it a great way to showcase the talent around the state but it also kicked off what we hope to bring with Lady Phenom. We want to continue the coverage from the event, as we talk about more players that grabbed our attention.
It was great to get another view of 2024 Morgan Smith from Ben L. Smith once again, as we saw her earlier in the year at the Tourney Town and now against some of the top players around the state. Smith continued to prove herself once again on the court, as Smith is just a tough overall guard with her game.
Smith was able to score in a variety of ways, knock down shots, and finish multiple tough finishes around the basket. She also is a strong two-way prospect and one that understands how to impact the game on both ends, as well as be a true floor general on the court. Smith is coming off an incredible season in which she led the charge with 14.5ppg, 2.5apg, and 4.0spg, as Ben L. Smith finished with a 25-3 record. And she should be in for a big summer as well, as Smith is one to continue to watch in the coming months and as a senior.
