Strengths/Question Marks:
Strong defensively with a lot of talent through the middle of the team. Biggest Question mark is in goal. Replacing Carly Riggs will be tough.
Outlook: “We are a little inexperienced as we lost several Varsity players to graduation, but we do have a lot of talent ready to step into those spots. They just need time to adjust to the level of competition and the speed of the game. Like every team, we want to go as far as we can in districts and hopefully states, but focusing on the next game in front of us is really the priority with this group.
“We’ve been impressed with our younger players and fully expect them to contribute this season. Sophomores, Kaleigh O’Donnell, Paige Addis and Brooke Strobel have earned their minutes, and there are freshmen pushing to play too.”
