Aubriyana Camp and Kamora “Momo” Moore have high hopes when it comes to what they want to accomplish during their four seasons together at Chattanooga Christian.
The dynamic duo of guards — nicknamed “Peanut Butter & Jelly” for how well they go together on the court — fully intend to put the Scenic City back on the map of the TSSAA girls’ basketball scene.
“We want to win a state championship. We want to do that for CCS and the city,” said Moore, who is just an eighth grader but also already a varsity star alongside Camp, a freshman. “We feel blessed to be at the level we are at so quickly, and that has come from us putting in hard work since we were really little in the gym.”
Moore was barely out of kindergarten when she was doing dribbling drills à la two-time NBA MVP Steph Curry. She was also still young when she first met Rhyne Howard, the former Bradley Central standout who’s now a WNBA star and representing the United States in international competition, and Moore held on to her advice to always stay humble and encouraging.
In second grade, Moore did workouts at the BX (Brainerd Crossroads) athletic facility, dribbling between clusters of chairs along with Tyner’s Rodney Henderson, who was in fifth grade at the time. Now they are two of Chattanooga’s top prep talents on the court.
