OXFORD, Miss. - Luciana Lima, a 5-8 setter from Fortaleza, Brazil, has signed to play volleyball for the University of Mississippi beginning with the 2003 season, Lady Rebel head coach Joe Getzin announced Monday.
Lima comes to Ole Miss as a transfer from Florida Community College in Jacksonville, Fla. She was named the Florida JUCO Player-of-the-Year in 2002 and earned All-Conference, All-Region and All-State honors as well. She was named to the All-Freshman team in 2001 as well as earning All-Conference, All-Region and All-State honors. Off the court, Lima was named to the Who's Who Among American Community Colleges in 2003.
A high school standout, Lima played at Dr. Phillips High School in Orlando, Fla., where she earned first team All-America honors in 1998. She played club volleyball for the OVA Club in Orlando and played club volleyball in Brazil for 10 years.
"Luciana brings international experience, being a little older," Getzin said. "With her experience and maturity she will be one of the leaders of our team in 2003. "When I look at what she brings along with our other signees, I am excited about our first full recruiting class."
The Lady Rebels will open the 2003 schedule Aug. 29-30 at the Baylor Tournament in Waco, Texas.
