All our returning forwards have shown the ability to score. We hope that one will emerge this season as a consistent, game-to-game threat.

176

We have our best depth in the midfield. Three of our four starters from last season return, giving us a group of experienced veterans.

152

Bailey and Jodi are proven goal scorers at the club and high school level. As freshmen, both could have an impact at the collegiate level as well.

147

Our strength is that we return depth at every position and the only exception is goalkeeper. S.A. graduated last season after a great career and we don't return anyone with college experience. We do like the talent we've added, and feel very comfortable with our goalkeeping situation.

143

On defense we again return three of four starters from last season. We should be able to put a very experienced group on the field at all times. With Ginny and Amanda Winn returning from injuries, we are returning two of our more experienced players, which will give the defense a huge boost.

142

We will look to Erin to step in and be our number one keeper. She's a great athlete with good size and good hands. Goalkeeper can be a difficult position for a freshman to step in and play right away, but we really think she can do it.

132

Our success will depend on the ability of this group to come together and play as a unit. We have the talent to stay on top in the conference and certainly return to the NCAA Tournament, but it will take awhile to see how it comes together.

130

In addition to our returning experience, we also add several players that are capable of making an immediate impact. Kitty, Kate, Sarah and Beth are all quite capable of starting for us in their first year with the team.

127

Up front we will be looking for the emergence of a dependable goal-scorer. Andrea, Taylor and Sarah (Freidel) all return as players capable of making that jump.
