Their primary guard oriented offensive attack makes them one tough team to play, all the guards can handle the ball and shoot it as well.  The big in the middle is an <strong>8th grader</strong> and she will be in our <strong>2023 Rankings</strong> coming out soon.  <strong>San Diego Waves went 4-1 on the Weekend</strong>, which will raise their rankings in the West Coast Club Teams Rankings this week. <strong> Highlighted Players on their Roster:</strong> <strong>2020, 5'10, SG, La Jolla Country Day HS, Tehina PaoPao</strong> (#1 ranked SG in the PGHCalifornia Rankings) <strong>(Commited to Oregon)</strong> <strong>2021, 5'7, PG, La Jolla Country Day HS, Jazalyn Anousinh</strong> (#20 ranked PG in the PGHCalifornia Rankings) <strong>2023, 6'3, PF, Eastlake Middle School, Breya Cunningham</strong> (#2 ranked player in the PGHCalifornia Rankings) [caption id="attachment_50494" align="alignnone" width="166"] Rayah Marshall - Team Taurasi[/caption]
