BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Head coach Steve Aird boosted his attacking options on Wednesday (Aug. 19) afternoon with the signing of outside hitter Spyridoula Komini. The 6-foot-1 native of Athens, Greece joins a talented collection of left-side hitters in Bloomington this season. She is one of two international players on IU's 2026 roster.
"We are excited to have Spyridoula join our roster for this season," Aird said. "Spi comes to us with plenty of international experience and is really excited to get rolling. We feel we have added a versatile, six-rotation player that can play on both pins and score in a variety of ways. More importantly, we have added a gem of a human being that will play with passion and do what the program asks of her."
Komini brings high-level experience to this year's squad after spending last season playing professionally in Greece. She helped guide AON Amazones to a third place finish in the Greek Pre-League Second Division during the 2025-26 campaign. Her resume also includes time playing with FO Vrilíssia (2024-25) and SFA Foivos Melisson (2019-2024).
She graduated from the Moraitis School where she won a pair of Hellenic High School Championships. That includes the 2022-23 season where she was named the league's MVP. During her volleyball journey, Komini has played with the Greek junior national team at the U16, U18 and U18 levels. She finished third in the U16 Balkan Championships in 2018.
Since Aird took over the program in 2018, she is the sixth international player to feature for the Hoosiers. That includes second-year and All-American setter Teodora Krickovic. In total, Komini is the eighth international volleyball player to feature for the Hoosiers and the first that hails from Greece. She will wear the number 22 jersey this season.
