GET TO KNOW KAELENE:
  • Why did you choose Iona?: I chose Iona because I loved the team dynamic and it reminded me of home. I felt that the family atmosphere is really important being so far from home, and this team had it. I also loved the coaching staff and could see myself growing as a player and on campus as a student.
  • Favorite athlete: Bo Jackson
  • Favorite food: All of them
  • Nickname: Lene
  • Biggest accomplishment so far in life: Being the second person to attend college in my family.
  • Person I admire most: I definitely admire my parents and family the most.
  • Pregame rituals: I have to untie my cleats after every game I play once I take them off. When I put my uniform on I have to do it in the same order each time I get ready. I have to take short hops before I take ground balls.
