2024 Outlook: We captured our 3rd consecutive District XI title last year and will work hard all season to put ourselves in position for a 4th. We graduated four senior starters who had tons of talent, experience, and leadership.
Our senior midfielders (Reese MacIntosh and Sara Tesche) are four- year starters and we will lean on their on- the -field experience to lead what is a very young team.
Our first and second year players are very talented and we will need them to make significant contributions if we expect to continue our run of recent success.
