Outlook: After reaching the district playoffs last season, the team hopes to use that experience as motivation to continue improving this year. We are looking to be even more competitive in the league and in our crossover games. Our players have been dedicated to their development in the offseason through winter and summer leagues.  We are ready to see the hard work put to the test against our opponents this season. Our JV goalie from last year has improved tremendously and is ready for varsity competition. With two first team all-league players back and several strong 10th and 11th graders, they will join our 5 seniors to have a very balanced team age-wise.
