HARRISONBURG, Va. – James Madison Head Coach Shelley Jaudon announced the signing of Reka Matko and Daria Munteanu to National Letters of Intent, and they will join the women's tennis program for the 2022-23 season.
Both signees have been members of their respective country's national team and bring a wealth of international playing experience to the Dukes.
"We are thrilled for these two young ladies to be joining our JMU women's tennis family," Jaudon said. "This is an exciting time as we transition to the Sun Belt Conference, and they will be key contributors in helping us make that move at the highest level. Most importantly, they each possess the character and integrity that is representative of our program. Their level of international playing experience is going to be a great addition too."

Daria Munteanu | 5-6 | Iasi, Romania | Mihai Eminescu National College
Jaudon on Munteanu: "I can't wait for Daria to arrive on campus next fall, as her competitive spirit is going to immediately elevate our program. Daria's potential is untapped, so we look forward to working with her to take her game to new heights."
