Cait McMahan Trick or Treat Basketball Camp

Former Tennessee guard Cait McMahan takes to the field at Neyland Stadium with her teammates during the Florida game to be recognized for the Lady Vols’ 2008 national championship.

The first annual Cait McMahan Trick or Treat Basketball Camp for girls is scheduled for Oct. 30 at Heritage High School. Open to girls 18-under, the camp will run from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Cost is $35, which includes a camp T-shirt. Pizza will be sold at lunch. The camp will focus on fundamentals and will feature team games and a special guest.

A former Tennessee Lady Vol, McMahan broke the Heritage all-time scoring record — boys or girls — in only three seasons as a Lady Mountaineer earlier this decade, a knee injury cutting short her senior season. The Heritage administration did the unprecedented by retiring her No. 3 jersey during her senior year at the school. McMahan would win a national championship with the Lady Vols during her freshman season in Knoxville in 2008, netting Tennessee coach Pat Summitt her record eighth national crown. Starting a basketball camp for area young girls who will follow her only seemed right, McMahan said.

“I could have done it anywhere, but I wanted to do it in Blount County,” she said.

Preregistration is encouraged and can be done by emailing McMahan at gonnamakeit3@aol.com.
