NCS Division 2 Prospects of the Bay Area: Class of 2022

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Listed below is the class of 2022 during the 2019-2020 season that raised the bar for the sophomore class. This group of sophomores are very advanced skillset, and contribute a fair amount to their teams. These players are apart of the North Coast Section Division 2:</span> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="163092" first="Trinity" last="Billingsley"]- 2022, 5’6”, PG &amp; SG, #3, American Canyon High School (American Canyon, CA)</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Wow, just wow. [player_tooltip player_id="163092" first="Trinity" last="Billingsley"] is so fast. One of the fastest players I have seen. Everything is done at a high intensity. Is an absolute stellar defensive player. She will not back down on defense, and will never allow a player to dribble past her. Trinity will always fight till the very end to get a steal. She is always outstanding at finishing on the drive. Even if she is under immense pressure she never fails to finish. Trinity has a great jump shot, and it’s a very quick shot as well. She can get it off before a defender can even think about blocking her shot. Trinity averaged 12.4 PPG, and scored a total of 297 points during the 2019-2020 season. She also averaged 2.1 APG, 5.2 RPG, and 2.7 SPG. She really stands out during her games, and always plays at a high competitive level. She plays alongside teammate Jazmine Fontilla, and they help carry the team together. I’m excited to see her play during her Junior and Senior season. </span> <b>Silivia Fonongaloa- 2022, 6”1’, C &amp; PF, #21, Salesian College Preparatory High School(Richmond, CA)</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Silivia Fonongaloa should not go unnoticed. She is a powerful player that I have mentioned before, and definitely helped lead her Salesian team to success. Salesian College Preparatory High School has a history of being a tough team to beat, and Silivia is carrying that legacy. She is very assertive when it comes to finishing, her moves under the basket are phenomenal and are tough to beat. She is also very proficient on the defensive end as well. Silivia averaged 11.2 PPG, and scored a total of 313 points during her 2019-2020 season. Alongside that, she averaged 6.6 RPG. Silivia is very active on both ends of the court, and is exceptional at boxing out. Defenders usually have a hard time scoring on her. Overall Silivia has the capability to play at a high competitive level, and is truly a one of a kind player. </span> <b>Nathalia Bernstein- 2022, Guard, 5’5”, #3, Redwood High School(Larkspur, CA)</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Nathalia is a player I have not mentioned before, and I am unsure why I haven’t gotten around to noticing an up and coming player. Nathalia Bernstein of Redwood High School is a very intelligent player. She is not afraid to take the ball to the basket. Perseverance is a word I’d use to describe her as a player. Bernstein is a very aggressive player, and like I said before, she is not afraid to take on an opponent. You can tell she is willing to take on any defender, no matter the opponent’s defensive skill level. Nathalia averaged 8.8 PPG, and scored a total of 254 points during the 2019-2020 season. She also averaged 3.1 RPG, and averaged 65% from the free throw line. Nathalia has a decent jump shot, and is very comfortable shooting outside the perimeter. Bernstein is a very confident player, and I am eagerly anticipating the rest of her high school career. </span> &nbsp;
