“Nina exemplifies the values that define Notre Dame, including integrity, respect, and a commitment to service. Her proven success in the classroom and on the court will strengthen our program and enrich our culture.”

Abalos on choosing Notre Dame:

“I chose Notre Dame because the university excels in both academics and athletics. The values and faith that the tight-knit community here establishes are what my family and I always strive to follow. It is a dream come true to have the opportunity to be a part of the ND community and much more to represent ND on the tennis court.”
