Outlook: “We are very excited about this upcoming season. We have a lot of experienced players returning who have worked very hard during the offseason. We graduated one senior, Taylor Thames, and four starters are returning: senior, Mikaela Giuliani and juniors, Sam Carangi, Jess Huber, and Irisa Ye. We also have three very talented sophomores filling out our roster: Bri Hewlett, Jess McKenzie, and Mia Melchior. All seven can score and play defense. Our overall size and athleticism will be a plus. We are hoping to stay healthy! There are several teams in our conference that are much improved, so we will need to remain focused each game. We have two challenging scrimmages vs. Abington and Cardinal O'Hara, which will give us a good idea on where we are. Also, our opener vs. Perkiomen Valley will be very competitive.”
