Girls Basketball: Transfers Aplenty

The summer season is winding down this week and it is time to sort out several players that have switched schools.

Canyon of Canyon Country lost one player but gained two and possibly a third.

Angelica Sahagun left and went to Alemnay of Mission Hills. Canyon picked up junior-to-be forward Alexa Davison from Cleveland of Reseda and guard Vanessa Aguilar from grant of Van Nuys. A third player, sophomore-to-be Brieanna Perkins from Quartz Hill could be headed to Canyon by September as well.

"I liked my team before we got two new players," Canyon coach Stan Delus said. "I like my team now even more."

Foothill League rival Hart of Newhall also picked up a guard from Grant.

Amanda Corona will suit up for the Indians next season.

Grant has been decimated this summer, losing Aguilar and Corona and another starter, Blue Sanders moved to New York.

"People just come in and raid programs now", Grant coach Michael Flot said. "It feels like my heart has been ripped out of my chest. It really is hard to take when you have worked with kids for several years and then they are gone in a flash."

I also learned that Granada Hills guard Skyler Tsutsui has transferred to Harvard-Westlake.
