BOCA RATON, Fla. – Florida Atlantic University head women's basketball coach Jennifer Sullivan has announced the hiring of Orianna Shillow as Director of Basketball Operations. In her role at FAU, Shillow will be responsible for travel and practices, along with liaison duties between the basketball office and departments around athletics.
