Former South Carolina Gamecock and current Mainland Pouākai guard Bree Hall delivered another stellar performance on Saturday, leading her team to a thrilling 93–89 win over the Tokomanawa Queens in the Tauihi Basketball Aotearoa League.
Hall was dominant on both ends of the floor, finishing with 18 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 steals, while showing remarkable efficiency and composure. She shot 5-of-7 from two-point range, 1-of-2 from beyond the arc, and a perfect 5-of-5 from the free-throw line. Her poise under pressure and ability to make key plays in crucial moments were major factors in the Pouākai’s hard-fought victory.
“Bree was locked in from the jump,” one team insider said. “She played with confidence, attacked the rim, and made big shots when we needed them. Her defense and leadership continue to set the tone for us.”
Hall’s smooth and efficient performance showcased the all-around game that made her a standout at South Carolina under Coach Dawn Staley, where she earned a reputation as one of the SEC’s most reliable two-way players. Since joining the Pouākai, she’s seamlessly transitioned into a starring role, quickly becoming one of the team’s most dependable scorers and defenders.
Her impact wasn’t limited to scoring. Hall’s defensive instincts were evident as she disrupted passing lanes, collected two key steals, and provided steady on-ball pressure throughout the game. Offensively, she kept the defense guessing with her ability to attack off the dribble and hit timely perimeter shots.
The Pouākai’s win over the Queens moves them further up the standings as the team continues to find rhythm midseason. Hall’s consistent performances have been a major catalyst in that success — and her growing international experience is only adding more polish to her professional resume.
For Gamecock fans watching from afar, Bree Hall’s journey is a continuation of the fierce competitiveness and steady excellence she displayed in Columbia. She’s proving that her game translates on the global stage — and if her current form is any indication, she’s only getting started.
