Rojas comes to Ball State after playing for one year at Trinidad State. Rojas averaged 20.1 points per game while shooting over 47 percent from the floor for the Trojans. She appeared in 16 games with 14 starts while averaging 24 minutes per contest. Rojas scored 20+ points in four of her last six games including a 25-point performance versus Lamar Community College. Her career best came against Northeastern Junior College after dropping 31 points for the Trojans. She brings a total of 321 career points to the Cardinals' fast paced offense next season while also finishing her freshman year ranked seventh in scoring in the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA).

"V is three-level scorer'" said Sallee. "She has tremendous range, can get it to the rack and can play in the mid-range. But I think what makes her dangerous is her scoring mentality…she always puts pressure on the defense with her aggressiveness! She has a great size and plays as well off the ball as she does with it in her hands. We are excited to get V here and to see her flourish in our offensive system."
