River City-West Sacramento – Basketball – Senior 

   Torres has been on a roll during the Raiders’ regular season stretch run, averaging 18.3 points per game while scoring in double digits in each of the team’s last 10 games. In a 71-37 victory over Union Mine, she scored 22 points and added four rebounds, four assists, and five steals. Torres followed that with 14 points and seven steals in a 48-25 win over El Dorado to cap a perfect Sierra Valley Conference slate at 12-0. For the season, she averaged 11.8 points, 4.4 steals, 3.1 assists, and 2.9 rebounds per game while. River City (23-4) earned the No. 8 seed in the Sac Joaquin Section Division I playoffs.

   IN HER OWN WORDS: “Having been on varsity since my freshman year, this is the first time that there is not another season to look to with my teammates when the season is done. Being a senior has helped me to realize that there is more to basketball than just playing the games.”

   WHAT YOU DIDN’T KNOW: She is “really into art” and is considering pursuing art as an interest in college and possibly a career. Torres prefers drawing. Her most recent work was a drawing of cliffs rising above an ocean beach.
