Sophia, a three-time San Diego Union-Tribune top 25 high school player to watch, was a force behind the plate at catcher. She will follow her dreams to work in medicine or law at Mira Costa College. Desiree, a standout at first base and right field, will be joining the Armed Forces as she enters the US Marines.

Kaili, starting second baseman, will continue her softball career at Claremont McKenna College, where she plans to major in chemistry. And starting left fielder Brielle, who has been instrumental in driving in runs and making big plays, will be headed to Roosevelt University.
