Mount Pleasant High School senior, Carter Chism, has been nominated as a McDonald’s All-American. The nomination process involves selections from hundreds of high school seniors, with final rosters determined by a committee of basketball experts. The list of nominees will be cut to 24, twelve for the East team and twelve for the West team.

The 2026 McDonald’s All-American Games will take place on April 1, 2026, in Brooklyn, New York.

The games, which started in 1978 for boys and 2002 for girls, benefit Ronald McDonald House Charities.
