High-IQ WCC floor general powering Santa Clara’s backcourt
Ashley Hawkins has emerged as a steady, high-impact guard for Santa Clara, earning WCC Player of the Week honors after averaging 14.7 points and 8.0 assists with a 4.8 assist-to-turnover ratio in a winning stretch. Her biggest differentiator is control: she can run an offense, create for teammates, and still score efficiently without giving away possessions. At 5'6", she brings quickness, poise, and veteran leadership as a senior, making her a strong fit for teams that value a disciplined, pass-first lead guard who can also take over stretches of a game.
