NESHAMINY FIELD HOCKEY PREVIEW

Coach:  Jamie Pinto- 10th year 

Assistant coaches: Brittany Beck and Kathleen Kervick 

Last year’s record:  Suburban One League, Patriot Division Champions. 15-5

Notable losses:  Lost 8 starting seniors, including 4 captains: Kasey Rieger, University of Delaware, Ava Arbakov, ESU; Maddy Shtino, IUP, and Alayna Roscoe 

Key returners:  Senior Captains: Reese Merrill, defense; Hailey Wert, defense; Layla Agster, forward. Juniors: Mia Brooks, midfield; Taylor Tenaglia, defense; and sophomore, Chloe Brison, midfield. 

Strengths/Question Marks:  “The captains have done a nice job in the offseason helping to prepare the team for preseason; they have set the tone and have led by example. We have a strong group of juniors, plus Brison, that work well together and will be able to step up and lead.

Outlook:  “Every year our goal is to pick up where we left off from the previous year— continuing to build on our strengths and working together as a team. The girls are ready to step up and work hard this season.”
