Central Bucks West Girls' Lacrosse Preview

CENTRAL BUCKS WEST GIRLS’ LACROSSE PREVIEW

Coach:  Tara Schmucker (4th season at West)

 Assistant coaches:  Lynn Hamilton, Mary Kate Blankenburg

Last year’s record:  11-6 overall, 6-6 SOL

Notable losses:  We lost 7 seniors, 6 starters.  All-league winners: Tara Shugars, Amanda Parker (Stetson), Steph Cooper, Christy Grezeszak

Key returners: Jane Savard (senior, captain attacker), Elena Romesburg (junior midfielder), Sarah Gebre (junior attacker)

Outlook:  “We are young this year and lost a big senior class.  However, the girls have been working hard in the offseason, and if the team can work within the system, we hope to be just as competitive.  As always our foci are playing as a team and coming out fighting each game.  We have girls from each class that can make an impact so hopefully the diversity will make us more of a threat.”

GAMES TO WATCH:  “All the league games are great competition.  Obviously our CB rivals are full of energy and emotion.”
