Shelton State Connection
Hobdy is not the only Gamecock who played two years at Shelton State Community College. Senior forward Mya Barnes played for the Buccaneers for two seasons before transferring to Jax State. Jones also played a pair of seasons at Shelton before transferring to Troy University for the 2024-25 season. Jones was a sophomore for Shelton during Hobdy's freshman campaign for the Bucs. Assistant coach Harley Cook was a student manager for the women's basketball program at Shelton for two seasons prior to coming to Jax State as a manager.
