Jersey head girls coach Caleb Williams expects Breden to be one of the Panthers' better players as she approaches her junior year in 2024-2025.

"She played a lot of minutes this year," he said. "She returned this year after a solid freshman year. She can handle the ball and score and much more."

Breden will likely fill some of the scoring and leadership of the squad with the upcoming graduation of all-stater Tessa Crawford.

Again congrats, to Cali on her Sparklight Internet Female Athlete of the Month for Jersey.
