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.
