Rock Hill, South Carolina was the place to be this week, as the adidas 3SSB Circuit followed up the Boys Championships with a showcase for the Girls, allowing the Team Trae Young Family to come together in support of one another.
The TTY 17U and 16U girls each played four games in Rock Hill, with the Boys teams and coaches cheering them along the way.

Asked the Girls before the game the difference between working hard and COMPETING. They just came back from -16 down to get the W in OT. Guess they said they would show me better than they could tell me ?? ? #TraeWay pic.twitter.com/Cq351ycSRH

The 16s were undermanned all weekend, with just seven players available, but did manage to head home with a win in the bag, something the players and their coach were very proud of.
So proud of these girls! They came out here to SC for @adidas3SSB Session2 after playing the super64 tourney, only 7 deep and COMPETED. They stuck together and are building chemistry that will make them a wild card for Cali! @TTYGrassroots @TeamTraeYoungWB @rayfordyoung pic.twitter.com/gASieczxIQ
