Post season review Impact Player of the week #7

This week's Southwest Washington
NW Girl's B-ball Impact player profile;

Shamerica Scott

Fort Vancouver High School
Sophomore 2011 #40

Exploding on the scene. Watch out basketball community, here she comes. Shamerica Scott is a virtual unknown to the high school varsity basketball community. After playing JV for Fort Vancouver, and playing over the summer in the traveling team circuit with Premier Elite, she has raised eyebrows and made waves with the basketball crowd. So much so, that without a minute of "high school varsity experience" she has received over a dozen 'letters of interest' from college coaches around the country.
Shamerica raised by her mom Holly, along with two brothers and a sister is from Tulsa Oklahoma. She started playing ball early in life, but didn't play organize ball until the 8th grade. She's such a natural athlete. Aggressive, strong, tough, quick, did I say aggressive, o'yeah aggressive. She's unpolished with her basketball skills for now, but she loves to learn and works very hard. She's all out, all the time. It will not be long before she sharpens those basketball skills and becomes even a more dominate basketball player in SW Washington... Scary.
Fort Vancouver won the 3A league title last season, and made it to state tournament in Tacoma. Losing a stellar senior class, this season was suppose to be a rebuilding year, but with the likes of Shamerica many schools in the area new they were in for a fight when facing Fort. I guarantee you this, she'll bring her lunch bucket every game, her opponents better bring theirs. Shamerica injured her knee mid way through the season and was force to the side line. She is rehabbing and looking forward to returning her junior season.
get to know a little about Shamerica; favorite song - I want to be close, Avant; favorite movie - Color Purple; favorite class - Math; hobbies include, playing basketball, drawing, writing, rappin' and dancing. She says her inspiration is Jesus and her mother. She hopes to lead Fort to the district playoffs this year, and would one day like to become a doctor or a lawyer.
