South Carolina women's basketball: Jerzy Robinson named McDonald's All-American
South Carolina commit Jerzy Robinson has been named to the West roster for the 2026 McDonald’s All-American Game.
Over 400 players were nominated, and the 24 players were announced on Monday. Robinson will be the 30th McDonald’s All-American in South Carolina’s program history.
The 2026 McDonald’s All-American Games will be played on March 31 at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, AZ.
Robinson is a consensus top-five player in the class, and she was recently named to the Naismith Trophy Girls High School Player of the Year Midseason Team. She committed to South Carolina on December 23.

Robinson also became the all-time leading scorer at Sierra Canyon High School, passing Juju Watkins. Robinson now has 2,355 career points, passing Watkins’ 2,322 points, for the record.
Watkins went on to set the NCAA freshman scoring record and has averaged 25.6 points in her career, the sixth-highest mark in NCAA history.
South Carolina signee Kelsi Andrews was nominated for the East team but not named to the final roster. That wasn’t a surprise, since a knee injury has limited Andrews’ availability this season.
Last season, Andrews had 12 points, 13 rebounds, and two blocks in IMG’s 80-78 win over Montverde at the Chipotle Nationals. That Montverde team featured Gamecock freshman Agot Makeer and Saniyah Hall, the top-ranked prospect in the 2026 class.

Andrews also has a pair of gold medals from playing with USA Basketball. She averaged 6.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, and a team-high 1.7 blocks at the 2023 FIBA Americas U16
South Carolina signed four players in the 2026 class. In addition to Robinson and Andrews, the Gamecocks signed wing Kaeli Wynn of Mater Dei in Los Angeles, CA. Wynn has not played this season due to an injury she originally suffered at the end of last season. As a result, she was not nominated for the McDonald’s All-American team.

The fourth member of South Carolina’s signing class is also the first to arrive. 6-7 French forward Alicia Tournebize committed to South Carolina on December 22 and joined the Gamecocks on January 1.
South Carolina has eight McDonald’s All-Americans on this season’s team. The four players who are not McDonald’s All-Americans were not eligible. Chloe Kitts and Adhel Tac enrolled early, before the end of their senior seasons, and were not eligible. Madina Okot and Tournebize were international players and therefore not eligible.
Under Dawn Staley, South Carolina has signed 22 McDonald’s All-Americans, and Staley has coached a total of 29 McDonald’s All-Americans. When Robinson signs, she will be the 23rd player.
