Young UCSB guard with captain’s DNA and a playmaking pedigree
In the 2024-25 season, Arshiya Ranjitkar appeared in 4 games for UC Santa Barbara, averaging 2.3 points, 1.3 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 6.3 minutes per game while shooting 36.4% from the field[2][3][5]. What makes her intriguing is the backstory: at James Logan and Piedmont High, she was a four-year captain, a four-time all-league pick, and posted 15 points, 5 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 steals per game as a high school senior—classic floor-general stuff[5][12]. For a team, she reads as a competitive guard who brings leadership, steady decision-making and toughness, with upside if her role and minutes expand[5][8].
