Mayorkas is ranked ninth nationally.

Also, junior Bridget Dwyer will play as an individual.

Sixteen teams will be at the tournament, including No. 4 Texas,
No. 5 USC, No. 6 Arizona and No. 9 California.

Track to host invitational meet

Both the UCLA men’s and women’s track teams will
compete in the first in what is anticipated to be an annual Rafer
Johnson/Jackie Joyner-Kersee Invitational at Drake Stadium on
Friday and Saturday.

A host of top professional and collegiate talent will also be
participating in the invitational meet in preparation for the
outdoor season. In addition to current Bruin lineup, former stars
John Godina, Michelle Perry and Seilala Sua will be competing.

Greco to play in WBCA All-Star game

Senior shooting guard Michelle Greco is one of 17 players who
will take part in the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association
All-Star Challenge on Friday at the women’s Final Four in
Atlanta.

A prelude to the Final Four, the game is part of a doubleheader
with the WBCA High School All-America game, and will feature some
of the nation’s top women’s players including
Vanderbilt’s Chantelle Anderson and Mississippi State’s
LaToya Thompson.

Greco led the Pac-10 in scoring and steals last season as the
Bruins finished with a stellar 18-11 record. She is the
school’s sixth all-time leading scorer, and she is expected
to be a high draft pick in this month’s WNBA Draft.
