    There were some changes in the rosters.


    Glorimar Ortega joined the Naranjito in january.
    Naranjito lost Taylor Simpson for injury and replaced her with Karsta Lowe.
    Gloriana Garcia is injured too, so Alba Aponte joined the team.
    Luis Aponte in the new head coach of the team.


    Alexandra Oquendo didn't recover from her injury yet and Caguas got her free. She may sign for every club intrested in her. It would be her first team in the island she plays, since sha has always been in Criollas.
    Karina Ocasio joined Caguas in january.


    Lauren Cook injured her hand, so Mayaguez is looking for a replacement.


    Caitlyn Donahue took Ortega's place as starting setter in Catano.


    Ponce released Emily Brown, waiting for Kelsey Robinson. The team lost many points playing with just a foreign player the last games.


    Juncos replaced Lilla Frederick (a back row specialist) with Hannah Werth, looking for more power in attack.

  • Changas de Naranjito signed their third coach of the year. He's José Luis ‘Nitro’ Díaz. He lost in his debut with the team by Caguas eventually.

  • Some changes: this is the last open window to sign or change foreign players.


    Naranjito released both Jaeckel and Lowe because they are out of play-offs and will complete the season without expensive foreigners. Both are very strong players. They will sign for sure with any other team.


    Catano changed head coach. Yarelis Rodríguez will take the team. The former coach Eduardo Galarza wasn't satisfied by Ustymenko's performances. Her position in the team isn't really strong. She could by released as well.


    Mayaguez lost Cook because of injury and released her and the other foreign player, McKenzie Adams; Micha Hancock and Hillary Hurley took their places.


    Alaina Bergsma didn't play last match. Considering she played very poor, I won't be surprised if she get released.

  • Janeliss Torres (MB) and Raymariely Santos (S) are new players of Leonas de Ponce until the end of the season. Both players were in Spanish Superliga (Haro and Murcia). 8)

    It's not surprise, both belong to Ponce and played here in last season ^^ Santos will be backup for Valentin, but Torres can be starter here :teach:
