Jan. 4, volleyball legend Dana Rettke arrived at her new home in Monza, where she joined her new professional volleyball team. Rettke, who led the University of Wisconsin to its first-ever NCAA championship in 2021, signed with Vero Volley Monza, one of Italy’s top pro league teams.
Despite being halfway through the season, a strong addition such as Rettke can put Vero Volley Monza at the top of its standings. According to Kenosha News, Claudio Bonati, sports director of the Vero Volley Consortium, views Rettke as a strong contributor to the end of the team’s season success.
