Gloucester High\’s LIL’ MAC

By CNB Sports

Sometime in the next few games and by the time the GCN is delivered to your door, Gloucester High’s Erin Mac Adams will reach the 1,000 point mark. Scoring 1,000 points in High School is a measure of a player’s legacy.

 \"032907_1656_macadamsnam1\" Papers throughout the South Jersey will comment on this milestone and most if, not all will point out Mac Adams height. But, little do these papers know that Mac Adams height is not an obstacle in basketball. The only place that height matters is the opening jump ball which is one of the few things Mac Adams does not do on the court. She rebounds, steals the ball and makes everyone around her better.

What Mac Adams has everyone has; a heart, unlike most athletes in any sport Mac Adams plays with heart the entire game and her entire life. Early on in her basketball career Mac Adams would be seen playing on her backyard court. She would play one on one in second grade against the Lion’s basketball player Brett Darrow and never once played like it was for fun. Mac Adams back then treated Darrow like everyone she does today with a determination and desire that would not let her lose.

Pro basketball player Spud Webb stands 5’ 4\” tall won the NBA slam dunk contest and Mac Adams is winning the hearts of fans and most importantly young girls looking to be like Erin.
