Coach Goodman on Moyano

“We could not be happier to welcome Luli to the Mizzou family. She is a very kind and hardworking person, and it’s clear how much she loves this sport. She has spent the last couple of years competing on tour against the best tennis players in the world, which is great preparation for the SEC. Luli is coming a long way to be a Tiger, and we want Columbia to feel like home the day she lands. We can’t wait to get started!”
