Area high school basketball statistical leaders (Feb. 14, 2016)

About two-thirds of the area’s basketball teams qualified for the playoffs, and for many players, that means at least one more game to add to his/her individual totals.

That opportunity may not pay off for any local player more than Green Sea Floyds sophomore guard Tamara Jackson. The area’s leading scorer (boys or girls, both in average and total points) enters the Trojans’ first-round game at Timmonsville 17 points shy of 500 for the season and 30 short of 1,000 for her career. Should she reach that second figure, she would join fellow recent 1,000-point club additions Bernard Jones (Christian Academy), Nia Sumpter (Myrtle Beach), Jackson Hurston (St. James), Arkel Williams (Carvers Bay), Kiana Adderton (Myrtle Beach) and Aquera Johnson (North Myrtle Beach), all of whom topped that milestone since mid-January.

It won’t be an easy task, as Timmonsville is the top-ranked team in Class A and has allowed fewer than 30 points per game this season. At the same time, Jackson has proved herself one of the dynamic scorers in the state.

She has been held under 14 points just once all season, and since the start of region play, she has topped the 30-point mark four times, including Thursday against Creek Bridge.
