Javelinas Add Size to the Roster
KINGSVILLE, TEXAS – Texas A&M-Kingsville women’s basketball coach Scott Hyland announced on Friday that he had signed three high schoolers to National Letters of Intent to continue their basketball careers for the Javelinas.

The three student-athletes are Brandy Garcia, a 5-11 wing from Edinburg North High School, Ashley Perez, a 6-2 post from Lytle and Allison Peters, a 6-4 post from Ganado.

Garcia led Edinburg North to a 27-12 record and an appearance in the regional semifinals in Class 5A. She averaged 10.6 points, 7.9 rebounds, 3.3 blocks, 2.4 steals and 2.2 assists per game as a senior. She was named the District 31-5A Defensive Player of the Year and first team all-District, all-City and all-Valley honors. She was a four-time first team all-City and three-time first team all-District player. She was tabbed on the all-Valley team three times and was the District 31-5A Newcomer of the Year as a freshman.

“We are very excited about the addition of Brandy to the Javelina program,” said Hyland. “She has grown up around the game and it shows. She does a lot of the little things that make a team click that only a coach can really appreciate. She is a very good athlete that can handle the ball and create for others. She can go inside, post up or attack the basket and finish with either hand. She is a tremendous shooter and gives us another three-point threat.”

Perez led Lytle HS to a 29-7 record this year. She averaged a double-double per game with 14.2 points and 10.8 rebounds while also blocking 4.0 shots per game and nabbing 2.1 steals per game. She was a two-time first team all-district performer.

“We have followed Ashley’s progress very closely over the past two years and really feel she could have a great impact upon our program as she continues to develop,” said Hyland. “She is a very good athlete with good size. She has great hands and a tremendous touch around the basket, but can also step out and knock in the long-range jumper to open up the paint.”

Peters comes to the Javelinas after an outstanding career at Ganado HS. As a senior, she posted three triple-doubles and 17 double-doubles en route to earning first team all-district, Victoria Advocate All-Area, TABC All-Region, Academic all-district and Academic All-State honors. She averaged 14.4 points, 15.8 rebounds and 6.1 blocks per game while shooting 39 percent from three-point range. During her junior year he had seven triple-doubles and 12 double-doubles while earning first team all-district, Victoria Advocate All-Area, TABC All-Region and Academic all-district honors. She was also a first team all-district and Academic all-district selection as a sophomore.

“We really like Allison’s potential,” said Hyland. “She runs the floor extremely well and has good lateral movement. She has good hands and a strong face-up game that will fit our offensive system well. Obviously, we like her size and feel she has tremendous potential to develop into a high impact player.”

The Javelinas are coming off an 18-10 season that saw them advance to the Lone Star Conference Tournament.
