Seaforth (NC

Head Coach : Jarod Stevenson 2021-22 Record: 12-10

Player Spotlight

Jarin Stevenson has been one of the biggest names in 2024 in North Carolina and nationally the last two years.The Pittsboro (NC) Seaforth High junior averaged 20.6 points, 11.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game this season. Jarin Stevenson comes from a basketball family, his mother played at North Carolina, and his father was a 1,400 point scorer at Richmond before playing professionally overseas for ten-plus years. Stevenson is very skilled at his size, from pushing the ball on a break off a rebound or spacing the floor for your offense with his ability to shoot the basketball from all three levels. Over the offseason, Stevenson has worked on tightening his handle and smoothing out his jumpshot. He hopes the extra work will help him improve his 3-point percentage after shooting 21-of-71 (29.6%) from behind the line as a sophomore. He also expects to be more dynamic with the ball in his hands. Last season, the Hawks’ first as a varsity program, the team went 12-10 overall and lost in the first round of the state playoffs. There is reason for optimism, though, as after a 1-5 start, Seaforth managed to win nine of its next 10 games and finish second in the Mid-Carolina 1A/2A Conference, with only freshmen and sophomores. Look for Jarin to put his stamp on his Seaforth career this season.
