2025 Outlook: The Lady Bombers are coming off their 2nd best record in school history with 20 wins, but no titles. Having graduated 6 quality SR’s – 3 of whom were 4 year varsity starters who set many school records, puts the Lady Bombers in a rebuilding mode. However, there are several returning players with varsity experience including 3 with multiple year experience.
In addition , there are several talented young players with youthful enthusiasm that have joined the squad this year. The development of these young players, helped by the veteran players on the team, will play a big part in the success of the season for the Bombers.
