Team Strengths - Some experienced players remain who will bring some stability and we have a very quick team throughout.
Team weaknesses - Graduations and departures cost us very good players in key positions, center backs, center midfield, center forward and goalkeeper and how those players will be replaced is unclear as yet.
Outlook – “Although we have some players in place, we will be relying on untested and inexperienced underclassmen to fill critical roles. How we do will depend on how quickly those players adapt to the pace of the game and the physical expectations. We have the potential to compete against the better teams in the league but we will need to make substantial strides during the preseason and the early games in order to realize that potential.”
