Coach: Chris Aube (third season)
Last year’s record: 3-7-2
Returning players: Seniors — Danielle Patrie (MF), Abby Bragg (F), Kaitlyn Rines (MF), Katie Corson (G), Ashley Casey (FB); Juniors — Elizabeth Damon (FB), Elizabeth Strout (MF), Dakota Warren (MF), Michelle Boutin (B); Sophomores — Arrabine Dunn (MF), Klara Hill (FB), Abby Campbell (FB), McKayla Darling (MF).
Key losses: Ally Martin (SW), Alicia Patrie (MF), Sami Jones (MF), Rachel Caron (FB).
Promising newcomers: Senior — Brianna Darling (FB); Junior — Jessica Cooper (MF); Sophomores — Gabby Theriault (MF), Allanah Knox (MF); Freshman — Nadia Wesley (F).
Outlook: The Bucks have much of their team back from last year. Bragg and Patrie are both four-year starters. Casey and Damon anchor the defense while Campbell, Boutin, Strout, Rines and Warren help make for a solid midfield. Wesley could come in and add some punch up front. The Bucks should be a solid and experience foe and should improve on last year.
Coach’s comment: “We will once again be a defensive-minded team, but I feel we have some experienced players in the midfield which should provide us with more scoring opportunities. How well we convert on the opportunities will determine how successful we will be.” Coach Chris Aube.
