Auburn announces the signing of Romi Levy, a 6-2 forward from Herzliya, Israel.
Romi Levy, who will be the first Auburn women’s basketball player from Israel, has signed with the Tigers, head coach Terri Williams-Flournoy announced today.
Levy was part of the Israeli 18U national team that competed in the 2018 U18 Women’s European Championship, helping her country to the bronze medal. In that competition, she scored 14 points in a win over Lithuania and had 13 points and four assists in a win over Albania.
“Romi is a passionate competitor who is coming to the States to play with and against the best,” Williams-Flournoy said. “Romi is able to not only bring experience from the international level, but also an exceptional IQ for the game. Her sharp-shooting and pure scoring capabilities make her a true perimeter threat. Romi’s length and court vision combined with her versatility in multiple positions make her a great addition to the program.”

Hannah White, 5-8 G, Wheeling Central Catholic HS (WV): announced her commitment to Cleveland State (Horizon) a few days ago.
White was pretty sold on CSU after a recruiting visit her sophomore year. That family atmosphere and never leaving her side, interest-wise, throughout the rehab process made White’s decision all the easier.
“Cleveland State has always been one of my top choices since I first stepped on their campus,” White said. “They were just so welcoming and I felt comfortable. I have built a great relationship with the staff and we kept in contact throughout my entire rehab process.”
