The Palm

Beach Atlantic women's soccer program has announced the

signing of Nikki Senese, a midfielder from Fayette County

High School.

A member of

the Lazers Soccer Club U-18 squad this past year, Senese

is expected to battle for an immediate spot in the 2000

sailfish midfield despite losing only one starter from a

team tat set a school record for goals (81).

"I

really loved the atmosphere on campus when I firstcame to

visit," said Senese, who plans to major in physical

therapy. "Coach Webb showed me around campus and all

of the girls on the team were very friendly. The campus

is gorgeous and the water is so close."

"I

hope our team can make the nationals. Getting a

scholarship was a huge goal for me, but now my goal will

be to become an all-conference and all-region

player."

Palm Beach

Atlantic is a private, four year liberal arts

institiution in the Christian tradition. The Sailfish

athletic teams participate nationally under the blanket

of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics

(NAIA) and locally in the Florida Sun Conference.
