ANCHORAGE (Nov. 12) – With the 2026-27 season just under way, Alaska Anchorage women's basketball coach Matt Thune continued to build for the future Thursday, announcing a five-woman class of incoming prep signees.

The newcomers all hail from UAA's backyard in the Pacific Northwest, including three from the state of Washington and another who was raised in Alaska.

Savannah Dahl | 5-11 Guard | Clackamas, Ore. (Clackamas HS)
The No. 6-ranked recruit in her state by Oregon Prep Girls Hoops, Dahl was a First Team All-Mount Hood Conference performer and honorable mention all-state as a junior in 2025-26, averaging 18 points, 6.1 rebounds and shooting 36 percent on threes and 86 percent on free throws. As a sophomore at Forest Grove High School, she set the school single-season records with 451 points and 92 three-pointers.

Coach Thune says:
"Savannah is an elite-level shooter who can really change a game with her ability to stretch the floor. She is ranked top 10 in Oregon for a reason, and her combination of length and shooting ability makes her a very difficult matchup. She has legitimate NBA range, shooting it comfortably from well beyond the college line. Her length at the guard position gives us another versatile piece, and we're excited to watch her continue to develop at UAA."

Raymiah Jackson | 6-0 Forward | Seattle, Wash. (Sumner HS) Washington|
Jackson will play her senior campaign at Sumner High in the Tacoma area after three outstanding seasons at Emerald Ridge High School, where she earned All-South Puget Sound League honors each year. As a junior, she averaged 11 points, nine rebounds and two assists to secure her second straight first-team all-league award.

Coach Thune says:
"Raymiah is a tremendous addition to our program and a player we believe can have a significant impact at UAA. She is the prototype of what we want at the forward position in our system. She is tenacious, athletic, and plays with a toughness that stands out, but she also has the skill to play both inside and on the perimeter. Raymiah had opportunities at the Division I level, including offers from Mountain West programs, so adding a player of her caliber is a big get for our program. We are really excited about what she can become here." 

Graycie Kast | 5-11 Guard | Moses Lake, Wash. (Royal HS)
Kast averaged 17.5 points, 9.5 rebounds and 3.5 steals as a junior at Royal High, capturing first-team all-league and Class 1A First Team All-State awards. A versatile wing, she posted 12.3 points and was the fourth-leading rebounder at the WIAA State Tournament in 2026, leading her team to a third-place finish.

Coach Thune says:
"Graycie is someone we feel has flown a little under the radar and we are really excited that she is going to be a Seawolf. She is an incredibly athletic player who also has a high level of skill. She has a lot of upside in her game. She can impact the game in multiple ways and is a perfect fit for how we play on both ends. Her family's roots trace back to Alaska, which also makes this signing particularly meaningful. We think Graycie is a player who is going to surprise a lot of people with what she is capable of."

Seneca Lucas | 5-3 Guard | Seattle, Wash. (West Seattle HS)
A three-year team captain for West Seattle, Lucas averaged 16 points, four rebounds, three assists and three steals as a junior in 2025-26. She was an all-league honorable mention performer and a WIAA Athlete of the Week award winner.

Coach Thune says:
"Seneca is a player who really impressed us with her ability to shoot the basketball and her feel for the game. She may be undersized, but she plays with confidence and has a skill set that can translate to our system. We are excited to see how she develops and contributes to our team." 

Jordyn Tomco | 5-10 Guard | Sandpoint, Idaho (Sandpoint HS)
A multisport star who grew up in Anchorage, Tomco will return north after one more season at Sandpoint High School, where she is closing in on 1,000 career points. An elite shooter and three-time all-league performer, she averaged 15.0 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists as a junior in 2025-26, posting a season-high 32 points against Blackfoot.

Coach Thune says:
"Jordyn is exactly the type of guard we want in our program. She is tough, has good size and can really shoot the basketball. Being from Anchorage, she understands what it means to be part of this community and to represent UAA, which makes bringing her home especially exciting for us. We think Jordyn has a chance to be a special player in our program."
