LATEST HIGHLIGHTS

KEY STRENGHTS

Fujika is a strong-bodied, dynamic guard with elite scoring ability, and an exceptional work ethic. 2022-23 has been a breakout season for Fujika who has increased her production by 50% since last season. She ranked 3rd in the Big West conference for scoring and was named to the All-Conference Second Team.

Fujika is a proven playmaker and a three-level scorer who can create for herself and for her teammates.

Fujika is very effective from beyond the arc, with a 3 pt percentage hovering around 40%. She has a tendency to score in bunches and always steps up when her team needs her the most.

She brings some much needed experience at the guard position and her skill set fits perfectly with our style of play. More than that, she is a young woman of high character with the strong family values and work ethic we want in our program. We are beyond excited she chose to come out West to join our Titan Ohana!

Fujika is a great teammate who is mature beyond her years. The best is yet to come for this charismatic, high potential, player whose winning mentality would be a plus for any team.

She speaks both English and Japanese.
