Player Notes
Washington signed two of the best seniors in NorCal in Pinewood's Elle Ladine and Oak Ridge's Teagan Brown.
On Ladine, head coach Tina Langley said, "Elle is dynamic - both in personality and capability. Her feel for the game allows her to play anywhere along the perimeter, handling the ball and hitting the open shot. There is no limit to her ceiling. Elle works hard and wants to be great for her teammates. Her personality is electric - and we can’t wait to have her in our locker room.
On Brown, Langley said, "Teagan is a combo guard with athleticism and speed that set her apart. Her play in the open court combined with her ability to shoot the three are what makes her a perfect addition to our system. Teagan embodies what Washington basketball stands for in her love for others and love for growth. She will elevate our culture and we can’t wait to welcome her to Montlake."
