1. Hammond (Columbia)
Head coach: Mark McClam
2014-15 record: 26-4

Spectacular senior Seventh Woods (6-2, G) is back for the defending SCISA Class 3A state champions. Woods, a target of programs like Clemson and North Carolina, averaged 16.3 points and 3.7 assists per game as a junior. He should surpass the 2,000-point mark as a senior. Charleston commit Chevez Goodwin (6-9, F) also returns for the Skyhawks after contributing 12.6 points and 9.4 rebounds per outing in 2014-15.

After winning the AAAA state title two seasons ago, the Warriors were knocked out of the postseason proceedings early by eventual champ Sumter last year. Division I target Jamez Rogers (6-6, G/F) has the ability to lift Wando back into championship form – he poured in 25 points in the 2014 championship game victory.

Head coach: Perry Dozier
2014-15 record: 19-8

If healthy, Jordan Bruner (6-8, Sr., F) could challenge for state player of the year honors and make the Vikings a contender. The versatile big man is being recruited by several ACC and SEC schools. Fellow senior Noah Harper (6-2, G) is another Spring Valley standout on the college radar.
