December 23, 2024 | Women's Tennis
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio -Â Bowling Green State University head tennis coach Mike Bonnell has announced Kiera Taylor has signed with the Falcons for the 2025-26 academic year.
Taylor is the first signee for the Falcons in the 2024 signing class and will join current sophomore Isabella Baker as the second Canadian on the roster. The Montreal, Québec., native will be the sixth international student-athlete to join the Orange and Brown.Â
Â
"Kiera fits our program extremely well and will immediately help our lineup in singles and doubles," said Head Coach Mike Bonnell. "She basically became one of the team during her campus visit and kind of made it impossible for us to not extend an offer."
Â
"She's got a wealth of international tennis experience, has the athleticism and potential that we look for, and her results show steady improvement over the last year," Bonnell continued. "Her best tennis is still ahead of her, and it's going to be exciting to have her on the Falcon's roster."
