Fortunately, she is well-versed in the Sunshine State Conference after spending the last two seasons at Tampa. Dina also brings experience coaching and playing in the NCAA tournament. She enjoyed a record setting career on attack at perennially strong West Chester University. I know she will bring great value to our attacking unit and draw circle play, and the team and I are excited to work with her!"
