Freshman Forward with CIF All-Team Pedigree Showing Early Grit at UC Riverside
Jayda Cobbs, a 5'8" freshman forward from Ontario, CA, brings a high-intensity, battle-tested mindset to UC Riverside as a 1st Team All-CIF selection from Rancho Christian HS. While her 2025-26 stats (0.6 PPG, 1.1 RPG in 8 games) reflect a typical rookie adjustment period with a 13.3% FG%, her differentiator is her proven scoring ceiling—she hit a career-high two points twice—and her reputation for relentless defensive effort. She’s a developmental fit for teams valuing raw potential, high work ethic, and a player who doesn’t shy from contact; no known injury history, and her personality leans competitive and coachable. Care about her because she’s a hidden gem with room to explode if given consistent minutes and shooting development.
