BUFFALO, NY - The University at Buffalo women's soccer program announced the signing of Zita McKenna (Oakville, Ontario/Iroquois Ridge) for next year's incoming class.

McKenna is 5' 7" defender who was a three-year letterwinner at Iroquois Ridge High School and was a two-year captain. In addition, she also played for the Burlington United Soccer Club and was team captain this past season. She helped guide her team to three straight Ontario Women's League Championships as well. McKenna is a defensive stopper and sweeper whose skills will fit in well with the Bulls tough defense. Last season, UB finished 22nd in the nation in team defense.

"Zita is a warrior on the field and has a great tactical understanding of the game," said UB head coach Jean-A. Tassy. "She has great leadership qualities and passion, and she hates to lose."
