Modesto Christian – Basketball – Senior

   She capped her high school hoops career by leading the Crusaders to a 64-55 victory over Santa Barbara that earned her team the Division III state championship. Tubbs had a team-high 11 points and pulled down 10 rebounds to put an exclamation point to an outstanding season and career. In leading the program to its first ever state championship, she averaged 16.6 points per game to pace a balanced offense that won 24 of its final 25 games. True to her consistent self, Tubbs averaged an identical 16.6 points per game in the postseason, but upped her rebounding totals in the playoffs. She will head to Northwest Nazarene University next fall

IN THEIR OWN WORDS: “All year long, we did it as a team and we just wanted to continue to do it together in our final game. We knew that if we all take care of business and do our jobs, then we are unstoppable.”

WHAT YOU DIDN’T KNOW: Tubbs won the Sac Joaquin Section Division IV-V championship in the 100-meter low hurdles as a freshman, and is aiming to qualify for her second state competition this year. She will also run track at Northwest Nazarene.
