AGS AT A GLANCE…
The lineup for UC Davis features four returners in the form of Leighton, Rastvortseva, Danner, and Mata. May originally from Stockton, California is a newcomer this year for the Aggies coming as a transfer from Santa Clara University and looks to make an immediate impact. Returning a core that finished tied for sixth at the Big West Conference Championship just a year ago, highlighted by First-Team All-Big West member Abby Leighton, UC Davis is primed to make another leap this year towards the top of the conference. At the helm is Aggie great, Demi Runas who takes over the program after a 10-year professional career and is looking forward to bringing success that the program is capable of.
