Continue ReadingMore than 30 players from our Class of 2022 state rankings come from the Midlands.
From Sumter to the west side of Lexington County, the central pocket of the state produces battle-tested players who are cutting their teeth just about every game. In six parts, we broke down all of them and what we loved about their games.
This is a list you don’t want to miss.
Quinton Harrison Quinton Harrison 6'0" | 185 lbs | DB Crestwood | 2022 State SCSchool: Crestwood
Position: Defensive back
Analysis: The corner had an effective junior season in which he picked off three passes and broke up four more. Harrison also returns punts and is great in space.
Julian Milligan Julian Milligan 6'1" | 205 lbs | RB Westwood | 2022 State SCSchool: Westwood
Position: Running back
Analysis: Milligan and the rest of the Westwood offense was hamstrung by a heavily shortened junior season, but he will get every opportunity to make a name for himself in 2021.
Bennett Galloway Bennett Galloway 6'0" | 190 lbs | RB Chapin | 2022 State SCSchool: Chapin
Position: Running back
Analysis: Galloway is a threat rushing the ball, catching it out of the backfield and on kick and punt returns. He’s primed to have a monster 2021 season and could jump way up this list.
Miquel Mason Miquel Mason 6'2" | 205 lbs | LB Ridge View | 2022 State SCSchool: Ridge View
Position: Linebacker
Analysis: Mason’s pursuit in the short field is all about angles, power and vision. He often creeps up to the line, but even when he’s 5 yards deep his eyes are on the ball.
Ryan McCants Ryan McCants 6'2" | 200 lbs | QB Sumter | 2022 State SCSchool: Sumter
Position: Quarterback
Analysis: The heir apparent to the Gamecocks’ defense was able to get his feet wet last season in mostly run-first and/or late-game situations. In 2021, that won’t be the case.
