Coach Dabney on Hanawahine

"Jayna was a special find for us. Another in the line of Hawaiians we've gone after. She is a middle infield prospect who can also play third; first if necessary. She is going to bring us a bat that can add some power to the lineup. She fits the mold of what we are trying to do here at TSU, athlete wise. She comes from a great family and we really look forward to having her here."
