Haines on Pineda- "Tony transferred to us in January, and has already made a difference on our program. He has a unique story. After a freshman All-American season at HPU, Tony left for West Virginia and was an integral part of a very successful period in their program including an Elite 8 run last season. He decided to come back to HPU for his final season and finish what he started. We are thrilled to have Tony back, and have a great deal of confidence that he will produce in the same way he did in his Freshman year at HPU."
