Lucianna Parrotta on Joining Texas State 
"I'm really excited and thankful for this opportunity to continue my journey at Texas State. I stayed true to what was important to my family and me. We wanted it to feel like family, and I got that for sure in spending time with Coach K, his staff, and the girls on the team. They were great and made me feel very comfortable. I also trust that I will get developed as a player and have the opportunity to contribute right away, as I feel the system is the right one for me. Lastly, to compete in the Pac-12 is a dream come true, and I am so excited for what is ahead!"
