This past season, Antar also coached the 17 Black team at JJVA in Jacksonville.

"We couldn't be more excited to welcome Coach Antar to the program," Reynolds said, "She is one of the bright, young coaches of the future, and we couldn't be more excited to welcome her to St. Augustine. She brings a wealth of volleyball knowledge and experience to the staff. In addition, she is a great person. During the interview process, I was impressed with her high moral character, her integrity, and her work ethic." 

In addition to her administrative responsibilities, Reynolds said Antar will serve as the recruiting coordinator and offensive coordinator for the Saints.
