Coach: Sharon Coulton (31st year)

Last year’s record: 11-3

Returning players: Seniors — Nikki Burgess (B), Paige Wood (B); Juniors — Mary Claire Blanchard (F), Lauren Kaiser (F), Erica Ouellette (F), Shauna Carlson (MF), Lorin Bryant (G); Sophomores — Sara Devoy (F), Rachel Ingram (F), Emmah Spahr (F), Jess Ames (MF), Micaela Kajduk (MF), Alyssa Arsenault (G).

Key losses: Nikki Scott, Sarah Warner, Sasha Flaherty.

Promising newcomers: Junior — Liz Glover (MF); Freshmen — Aja Dostie (F), Danielle Hutchinson (B), Gabby Stewart (B).

Outlook: A very strong team a year ago, the Ramblers will again be a force in the MVC. Eleven wins is the benchmark set by last year’s team, and this group could better it. The team is strong up front and should be better in the back than last season. Scary, considering the Ramblers allowed only 19 goals all season a year ago.

Coach’s comment: “We have some big holes to fill, but I’m optimistic that we will be able to do that if everyone stays healthy.”
