Strengths/Question Marks: Our proud senior leadership consists of multiple year varsity players led by captains Leanna Schenk (Kutztown Univ. Commit), Lauren Everitt and Ella O’Rourke who understand the challenge at hand. Our younger and first-time varsity players will learn from them as we move ahead all season and understand the teams on our schedule are very good and we must put in the work in practice to be ready.”

Outlook: “Our coaches and players have put in the time this offseason to get ready for the 2023 season. We have a lot of young players playing varsity for the first time. They will be key contributors as the season starts and goes on. Making the playoffs last year was a good accomplishment for our program and we would like to continue that in 2023.”
