Long Beach State's Sharpshooting Peruvian Guard from the Late 2000s Era
Karina Figueroa, a standout guard for Long Beach State Beach in the 2006-09 seasons, etched her name in 49ers lore as a top all-time leader in career free throw percentage (.787), 3-point attempts (223), and makes (72), showcasing elite shooting accuracy and clutch reliability. An international star who started for Peru's national team in 2006 (averaging 9.0 PPG), she brought fearless intensity and leadership to the court—perfect for teams needing a battle-tested perimeter threat with proven Big West pedigree. Though graduated years ago, her differentiator was consistent scoring under pressure.
