SPRINGFIELD TOWNSHIP GIRLS’ LACROSSE PREVIEW
Coach: Maggie Canavan (third year)
Assistant Coaches: Katie Phillips and Lauren Mussetti
Notable Losses: Caroline Pape (playing at Fairleigh Dickinson), Bailey Krewson (playing at Immaculata University), and Molly Fitzpatrick.
Key Returners: Lindsey Smith and Meredith Giordano (midfielders), Meg Chandler, Marley Berger, and Allison Yoder (attackers), Emily Giampietro (defense), Margrethe Leis (GK).
Others to watch: “We have a lot of incoming freshmen who we feel will make strong contributions to the team this year. Keep an eye out for Emily Walsh, whose speed will carry us through the midfield, as well as Sophia Perry.”
Strengths: “Our team strength is our speed. The girls have been working very hard this off-season to get and stay in shape, and it has been showing. Our speed in the midfield is something we will rely on during games.”
Outlook: “We are going to be a young team this year, but have a great group of seniors to lead our team. The girls have been working really hard to come together as a group, both on and off the field. We are looking forward to seeing how their hard work pays off. We look forward to being a threat in the league this year. One of our main focuses is transition, both to attack and defense. Our girls are excited to start playing!”
