For those with interest in Cal women's recruiting, here's the Front Page story and video: http://bearinsider.com/news/story.php?article=2119
Cayton was a key late pickup just a week before summer bridge started after she decommitted from Nebraska after longtime head coach Connie Yort's departure. Pretty unusual to be able to get a Top 100 player at a position of need that late in the game but it worked out well for Cal. Yort's good relationship with Lindsay Gottlieb and her respect for the program and university were a real help for Cal when it came down to Cayton's final decision.
She brings a real competitive fire and a strong outside game with the ability to penetrate and finish plus a strong defensive intensity. With their thin backcourt depth, she'll definitely be a welcome addition.
