Ajomale was born in Douglasville, Georgia to Damiond Phillips and Brandie James. She has two siblings, Georgia and Kenyon. She plans on pursuing a degree in psychology and strives to become a pediatric therapist in the future.

"I chose to attend Cal State Fullerton because I was intrigued by the competition inside the conference. I wanted to be near my family and in a state that was next to home." said Ajomale.

"Cici comes from one of the most successful and dominant high school programs on the West Coast and knows what it takes to win.  She has great size, length, athleticism and her ability to run the floor, rebound, block shots, post up and shoot the basketball allows her to impact the game in so many ways on both ends of the floor." said Head Coach Jeff Harada.



Layla Davis
Forward/Center | Lancaster, Calif. | Valley Christian School

Davis is on track to graduate from Valley Christian School in the spring of 2024 where she won a league championship with the Crusaders. She also competed for the Sports Academy Swish in the Nike EYBL league under Head Coach Russ Davis.

"I chose to come to Cal State Fullerton because I loved the environment and it felt like home as I stepped foot on campus." said Layla Davis.

"Layla is a very strong post player who is one of the best rebounders at her position.  She embraces contact and the physicality of the game that allows her to make a lot of plays in and around the paint.  She finishes well with both hands and will definitely add some toughness to our team." said Head Coach Jeff Harada
