NLI Spotlight Updates

After an incredible final season with Carondelet basketball, Nya Epps will continue her athletic career at the University of California, Davis as an Aggie. She is proud of her team’s 10-1 record last year, being named to the Bay Area News Group’s Fab 25 Girls Basketball Players list in 2021, and becoming the 3rd Carondelet team to win a CIF state championship. Nya chose UC Davis because of the great academics and successful basketball program. Along with her instant connection with the incredible team and coaching staff, both her parents attended Davis so she knew she wanted to be an Aggie early on in life. She also immediately fell in love with the campus and envisioned herself there for the next four years. Watch video interview.
