UPPER DUBLIN GIRLS’ SOCCER PREVIEW
Coach: Chuck Gesing (1st year)
Assistant coaches: John Topper, Chris Cobb
Last year’s record: 12-7
Notable losses: Sascha Keitz, Katie King, Lexi Moss, Aidan Hopkins, Tina Haig, Emily Boothe, Maddie Sanders
Key returners: Senior co-captains Julia Eustace and Laura Pendleton, Juniors Anna Desch, Karolina Bocul, Sophomore goalkeeper Rachel Adleman
Others to watch: Juniors Ella Eustace, Katie Kenny and Molly Brown will be asked to anchor the defense with help from sophomores Maddie Amoia and Berkley Harmon. Newcomers Sophomore Mary Rose Brown and freshman Alex Devers should test opponents’ goalkeepers
Strengths/Question Marks: “We have a very young team and a small senior class. Coming together quickly will be the key to our success. We graduated a large senior class last year so there are new faces that need to work together. The sooner this happens, the better we’ll finish.”
Outlook: “Being so young, we are going to have some growing pains early in the season. As the year progresses we should be tougher.”
