Wissahickon Girls' Soccer Preview

WISSAHICKON GIRLS’ SOCCER PREVIEW

Coach: Chris McDaniels 6th Year

Assistant coaches: Sean Treacy and Jim Mahoney

Last year’s record:  11-7-1, Won first round playoff game against Haverford.

Notable losses:

  • Sage Stelzer (Pitt)
  • Margo Kasenchar (Ithaca)
  • Kylie Friedman (PSU Club)

Key returners:

  • Lucy Greenstein CDM
  • Lannah Werynski M/F
  • Olivia Lore GK

Others to watch:

  • Julia D’Aquanno M/D
  • Kendall Dries F
  • Ellie Stein D/M

Strengths: Strong centrally with Lore, Stein and Greenstein anchoring the defense

Question marks: Can we generate consistent goal scoring?

Outlook:  “In the past two seasons, we graduated some prolific goal scorers.  This year we will need to get more players chipping in with goals to get results.  I see Lannah Werynski leading that group and creating chances both for herself and her teammates.  Defensively, we will be led by Lucy Greenstein at CDM.  Her work rate and intensity are excellent and should help out while our new backline gets organized and experienced. In goal, having Olivia Lore back off a season-long injury should anchor us in the back.  Overall, I hope to see us improving every time out while showing maximum effort and determination.”
