DENVER – MSU Denver coach Josh Graetz has announced the addition of three student-athletes to the women's tennis program for the 2019-20 season.
 
The group includes an NCAA Division I transfer, a Division II transfer, and an incoming freshman.
 
Metropolitan State University of Denver just finished winning its third straight Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference regular season championship.
 
A capsule look at the new recruits:
 
Gala Castello | Barcelona, Spain | Escola Pia Sarria | North Greenville (S.C.) | Club Tennis Barcino

Coach Josh Graetz: "Gala is a Spanish transfer from North Greenville University, where she played No. 1 singles and No. 1 doubles. This exposure playing against a quality opponent every match will make her battle-hardened when she joins MSU Denver. Not only is she a great player but she also has high goals and expectations for herself and this program. I'm excited to watch her develop."

Sara Iverson | Denver, Colo. | Ecole Oasis Internationale (Cairo, Egypt) | Montana State

Coach Josh Graetz: "Sara is another transfer, from Montana State. Like Gala she has played at a high level throughout college, and she is looking for a program to make an impact. She has some pretty serious weapons from the baseline, which I can see making a difference at the Division II level. Sara has a really vibrant personality and I'm excited for her to join the women's team."
