Russ Rose Now (2026): “Serena had all the tools coming out of high school and club to be a multiyear All American and a National Team player. She had some success for us at Penn State and then finished her career at Pitt. She was strong at the net and bright as a student. She has spent time in the USA Gym as well as playing in one of the U.S. pro leagues.”
