Danilovitz, from Riverside High School (Moosic, PA) is a very young and exciting distance runner. Fresh off her 5th place finish at the PA XC State Championships, Danilovitz has a very bright future. Her multi-sport background is an asset in both her physical strength and mental toughness.

Assistant Coach Dan Johnson is very excited to bring her into the Bulls' program, saying, "Kara is one of the most talented and dynamic jumpers in the state. She has a great understanding of the horizontal events and will help improve a women's triple jump squad that was #7 in the nation last year. Kara will come to Buffalo as an outstanding high school athlete with a great opportunity to have a distinguished career as a Bull." Moran plans to major in Nutrition.
