Prior to Southern 
Hunnicutt was a three-year letter winner for the Two Rivers High School Gators while competing three other sports as well. She is a Danville, Arkansas native who averaged 23.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 3.0 steals per game throughout her junior season following a sophomore season of averaging 20 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 steals, and 2.0 assists per contest. She went on to land on two All-State and All-Conference teams toward being named the 2019 Centennial Bank Brightest States Girls Basketball Player of the Year. She helped lead the Gators to a Yell County tournament and Regional championship (sophomore), two District championships (sophomore and junior), and a conference championship (junior) while being runners up when they did not take home a championship. In the offseason, Hunnicutt was a four-year letter winner in both track and field and golf, and a three-year letter winner as part of the cheer squad. As a sprinter and jumper, she earned All-Conference accolades from her freshman to her junior season on top of an All-State honor as a junior to go along with All-Conference honors in golf two years in a row (freshman and sophomore) and an All-State performer in cheer as a junior.
