"I am very excited to introduce Anaya to Buffalo as the first international libero we have brought into this program since before 2015," stated Head Coach Scott Smith. "I believe her experience with the national team of New Zealand, and international play, has prepared her to make an immediate impact in our gym. She brings a level of maturity, dedication, and motivation that will be very influential throughout our team. On the court she is well balanced with her defense and serve receive but it is her ability to communicate and lead that really stood out to our staff."
