“Beyond blessed to announce that I have committed to Cal Berkley! It’s has been a very long journey to get to this point and I would like to thank all of my teammates, friends, and family who have helped me achieve this. When it came down to it, Cal was an easy choice for me, it being a Pac-12 school, top 5 in the nation academically, and it just felt like home. I would like to deeply thank my coach Ron Benjamin who has been my coach since I moved to Placer last year. Ron has been the biggest help in the college recruitment process and I couldn’t have done it with out him. I would also like to thank my trainer Aklesh who has been training me since I was 8 years old. Without Aklesh I wouldn’t be where I am today, he constantly pushes me and makes me a better player each time I step on the field to train with him. He also believed in me when no one else did. Lastly, I would like to thank my dear parents for their never ending support and teaching me the values of hard work, dedication, and respect. I feel very grateful and humbled by this opportunity to play for Cal and I look forward to preparing myself both physically and academically! Go Bears!” — Abena Aidoo
