Todd Petty adds a third player to signing class
LUBBOCK, Texas – Texas Tech Women's Tennis Head Coach Todd Petty announced the addition of Kira Reuter to the 2019 signing class on Thursday.
Kira Reuter hails from Great Britain and inked a National Letter of Intent (NLI) and Athletic Scholarship Agreements (ASA) to join the program in the fall. While attending the Culford School, a prep school in England, Reuter won three straight British tour titles including the Sheffield British Tour title in Jan 2018 and the Loughbrough British Tour title in march 2018.
"We feel very fortunate to have Kira join our program. She has extreme talent and has had a tough road the last couple of years," Petty said. "I have no doubt that she will develop into one of the better players in college tennis. Above all, she has the personal characteristics that our program has here at Texas Tech. She embodies what it means to be a Lady Raider."
She joins Violet Apisah and Margarita Skriabina in the 2019 class.
"I choose Texas Tech because of the instant connection I felt with the team and the coaches," Reuter said. "The moment I set foot in Texas Tech I knew the place was special. The whole team made me feel so welcome. From here it's possible, my guns are drawn!"
