Conference outlook:
I think we will be competitive in a very tough conference if the girls can adjust to their new positions.  Some girls left the program so some changes were made so we need time to adjust.
Keys to your success this season:
The girls adjusting to their new roles with other girls stepping up to fill in the open positions.  We are not very deep so staying healthy is key.

Behind the scenes: Who are some of the people that help your program succeed?  

As always our Athletic Deparmtent of Chris Feidt and Scout Gerndt as well as our amazing Athletic Trainer.    Barb Mancuso volunteering her time to come and work with the girls as well as the coaches is awesome.  Lastly, the families of the coaches and players.  The coaches and players are gone a lot between practices and matches so having their support is very important.

Coach’s comments: anything else you’d like to share?

We are pretty young with some experience.  The kids having an open mind to listen to what we are teaching them will be a key factor.  It will be fun to see the girls grow as the season progresses
