Why UWF? “I chose UWF because it's a great opportunity to further my academic career with their ABA Therapy Masters Program. The visit showed me that the girls on the UWF volleyball team are driven and goal oriented when it comes to the 2024 volleyball season. Its location played a factor as it’s close to the beach and it would be nice to have a place for all my family to get together for vacations, celebrations, holidays, etc.”

Wolter’s comments: “I have coached against Tylah for years. She’s an excellent athlete and has a proven track record of being terminal at the highest levels of D2. She’s a winner, having played for one of the best coaches in the country, Christy Benner. She’s a lot of fun to watch and driven to make her last year on the court her best. She’s going to add a lot to our roster for 2024.”
