AMHERST, Mass. - UMass Head Rowing Coach Jim Dietz announced Tuesday that Alexandra Daggy has signed a National Letter of Intent with Massachusetts. Daggy will join the Minutewomen for the 2011 season as a freshman.
"After spending summers on Cape Cod, Alex is looking forward to coming back to Massachusetts for her undergraduate degree and to compete in Rowing," said UMass assistant coach Alex Binkowski."
