Strengths: Strong team defense and speed on the ball, a young team looking to improve with another year together. Strong senior leadership and a team that likes to play together.
Outlook: “We look to build on the success we had last year getting back to the playoffs for the first time in four years. We have a young team that is hungry to find more success and continue to win games in a very competitive league and division. We look to make it back to the playoffs this season and remain competitive against strong District 1 competition. We have a great group of girls that have gelled together nicely over the past year, and I am excited to see what the girls can put together on the field this season.”
