Some players take time to adjust to the speed of collegiate basketball. Naomi Panganiban isn’t one of them. Following a historic debut season where she led all freshmen in her conference in scoring, the 5-7 guard has quickly established herself as a cornerstone of her program’s future. JLab is proud to partner with an athlete who balances elite speed with a business-minded approach to the game.
A Record-Breaking Start
Naomi’s transition to the college level was seamless. She appeared in every game of her freshman season, leading her team in three-pointers and earning multiple Freshman of the Week honors. When the lights were brightest during the tournament, she stepped up, averaging over 12 points per game and proving she could handle the heavy minutes required of a primary playmaker.
Her performance on the court is fueled by a background in track and field, where she still holds her high school record for the 100-meter dash. That explosive speed allows her to blow past defenders and transition from defense to offense in a blink. Whether she is representing her hometown or playing for the Philippines National Team, Naomi’s game is defined by relentless energy.
Partnering with JLab: Focused and Unplugged
For a Business major balancing the demands of a high-level basketball schedule, preparation is everything. Naomi utilizes JLab gear to help manage her routine, which includes everything from high-intensity training to quiet meditation.
To find her center before a game, she relies on the JBuds Lux Headphones. The active noise canceling allows her to tune out the noise and lock in on her visualization and meditation. For the daily grind—whether she is heading to class or traveling for a road game—the JBuds Mini Earbuds are her go-to essential. Their ultra-compact size makes them perfect for someone always on the move.
When she’s active and needs to stay aware of her surroundings, she reaches for the JBuds Open Headphones. And when the work is done and it’s time to celebrate a big win with her teammates? The Epic Party Speaker provides the high-energy soundtrack the locker room needs.
Local Talent, Global Impact
Naomi Panganiban represents the next generation of elite guards: fast, versatile, and incredibly focused. From the local courts of San Diego to the international stage with the Philippines National Team, she is a player who demands attention every time she steps on the hardwood.
JLab is excited to support Naomi as she continues to push the pace and set new records. We’re ready to see what her sophomore season has in store.
