UC Irvine's Steady-Handed Starter with Defensive Upside
Tarryn Ross solidified her role as a reliable starter for Cal State San Bernardino in the 2023-24 season, playing all 28 games for 732 minutes while averaging 7.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, and elite 70% FG efficiency, plus 18 blocks and 37 assists showcasing her versatile two-way game and court vision. After transferring to UC Irvine, her limited 2023-24 minutes (11 games, 0.6 PPG) hint at adjustment challenges, but her senior grit, first career start vs. Fullerton, and career-high 5-point/2-block outburst signal untapped intensity. A dependable glue guy with rebounding pop for a guard—perfect fit for teams needing tough, efficient bench depth without ego.
