Santa Rosa Junior College Women's Basketball 2006-2007 season was a successful one for Women’s Bear Cub basketball. Santa Rosa ended up 3rd in the very tough Big 7 conference which produced the runner up in the state championship game. Santa Rosa was lead by a slew of sophomores, Katie Franci, Melissa Azevedo, Jessica Edens, Letisha Mims, Jessie Relf, Leslie Hirshfield and Belou Carpenter, all of whom played the previous year for the Bear Cubs. Lisa Waller returned to the area to play for the Bear Cubs as a sophomore. The Bear Cubs also saw freshmen grow into starting rolls, Erica Wagner from Windsor and Rachel Samana from Casa Grande both started games for Santa Rosa; Jenna Kunde from Maria Carrillo also saw respectable time. The Bear Cubs knocked off #1 Sierra at home to contend for second place. Santa Rosa made it to play-offs for the seventh straight year, playing Contra Costa. The Bear Cubs finished the year 17-15 and 3rd in the Big 7. Outlook for the 2007-08 Season: The Bear Cubs have a great group of freshman coming in to accompany the two sophomores returning from last year’s team. Rachel Samana and Erica Wagner both started for the Bear Cubs last year and have the game experience to lead the Bear Cubs this year. Two redshirts, Annie Sacks and Jaime Parr, are looking to step in this year. Local players Palagi Atoe from Maria Carrillo, Lisa Muzio from Rincon Valley Christian, Tiffany Mims from Ursuline, and Veronica Morris from Montgomery all will have big roles this year. Jessica Champagne from San Marin and Mackenzie Bailey from Loomis will be great additions to the Bear Cubs’ offense. Santa Rosa looks to contend for the Big 8 title this year against some of the best talent in the state. They will be up tempo and defense oriented. I have been pleased with the hard work and dedication of this team. They are a focused group and I am certain that I will enjoy working with them this year. With so many freshmen we are commited to becoming a team and willing to work towards our goals. We are committed to our goal of winning the Big 8 Championship and the State Championship in 2007-2008.
