Kaitlin will major in Fashion Merchandising and minor in Dance at Brenau.

"Kaitlin represents all the good things about a student athlete and her record throughout high school bears that out," said Coach Gary Bays. "She will be a solid addition to our roster and I would expect her to develop into a good college player."
