CARLSBAD, Calif. - The San Diego Aviators have signed American Christina McHale to play all four matches of their season-opening road trip, which begins on Sunday, July 14 against the New York Empire.

"We are thrilled to have Christina McHale join the Aviators for their season-opening four-match road trip," said Aviators General Manager Cari Buck. "Having McHale and her brother-in-law Ryan Harrison on the team for these first four matches will help give the Aviators a strong start this season."
