CAYCE, S.C. — Last week, a huge weight was lifted off the shoulders of Milaysia Fulwiley when she announced publicly that she was signing with South Carolina.
A week later, a very relaxed Fulwiley was part of the contingent of high school players who showed up at the Brookland-Cayce High School gymnasium for media day presented by the South Carolina Basketball Coaches Association.
The W.J. Keenan standout says it is nice to walk the halls at her school and not field numerous questions from her high school colleagues about her college destination. Before her signing, Fulwiley would deflect questions by simply saying 'I don't know,' even though she knew her likely destination.
The top-ranked player in the state and a top 15 national prospect, Fulwiley can now concentrate on her senior season which she hopes will end with her fifth career state championship as she won her first at W.J. Keenan when she was a seventh grader.
