HIGH SCHOOL: In two years at UNC Charlotte, McGill appeared in 56 games with 23 starts.  He comes to Mossy Creek with 205 career points to his name.  In his sophomore year, he tied his career-high with 13 points (connected on three three-point field goals) against Southern Miss. That came in a stretch when he recorded back-to-back double-figure scoring games for the first time in his career with his output against the Golden Eagles 12 points against Florida Atlantic. He matched his career high with 13 points including going 3-for-4 from beyond the three-point line in a career-high 31 minutes against TCU.  As a freshman, he recorded his first career double-figure scoring game with 12 points (including connecting on three three-point field goals) at USF (12/21).

HIGH SCHOOL: As a senior at Olympic High School, McGill averaged 11.4 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists per gam. He earned SoMeck 8 All-Conference honors as a senior and was listed as the one of the top recruits in the state of North Carolina by the Charlotte Observer.

PERSONAL: The son of Lisa and Jeff McGill, he plans to study psychology at Carson-Newman.  He chose Carson-Newman over Maryland Eastern Shore, West Florida and South Carolina State.  His father played collegiately at Wake Forest and Eastern Kentucky.
