The 2nd Annual NC Adidas Girls Jr. Phenom Camp was held December 2-3, 20065 in Huntersville, NC at North Mecklenburg High School and Elite 75 staff was at attendance. Again 40 of the top middle school girls from North Carolina were in attendance for the evaluation camp and qualifier for the National Adidas Jr. Phenom Camp. Competition level was high again this year, but there were a couple of standouts in every age division.

Tiffany Mitchell 5’6 PG Charlotte, NC
Barb Nelson maybe losing her best guard in Epiphinay Woodson at Providence Day, but she grooming a younger version in Mitchell so they want skip a beat. One of the top guards in the camp Mitchell has excellent court vision and passes on the drop of a dime. Can break defenders down and gets to the rack. And to add to her arsenal she is a deadly threat from the arc.

Has Candance Parker like tendencies, Our Elite 75 reporter sat there dazzled by this player as she excited crowd. Has the ability to play all positions on the floor, great court vision, able to post defenders and drop step. Adding a consistent jump shot and as strength develops will complete game. Troy Gaston at South Mecklenburg High School could be looking at another state championship in years to come.
Kiera Mcivor and Cierra Burkick were so dominate in the camp, the Elite 75 Prep staff had a hard time determining the top camp player, so we extended Co-Top Camper” honors to both players. Scouts said these two players were clear standouts

A High School coach’s daughter and it shows, excellent knowledge of the game, very intelligent, makes great passes, and can shoot the ball very consistent from the 3, plays varsity as a freshmen at North Mecklenburg High School
