Others to watch: Paige Borkowski (Sr.) Midfield, Angelina Daino(Jr.) forward, Abby Collins (So.) midfield, Taylor Maxwell (So.) Defense

Strengths/Question Marks:  “We have a strong class of returning seniors with lots of experience and players coming in off the bench. We did graduate two key defensive starters, so we are looking for players to step up and fill those roles.”

Outlook: “We are looking to repeat as SOL Patriot League Champs. The team has been working hard in preseason and underclassman have been stepping up. Our seniors have really set the tone and have high expectations for everyone on the team. Five of our seniors are going to continue to play in college. We have our goal scoring leader from 2021 Kylie Maxwell (So.) returning as well as some players who missed the 2021 season due to injury, who have been stepping up to fill the spots or our gradating seniors.”
