Coach: Tom Morong (fifth year)
Last year’s record: 11-8, lost in Western B prelim.
Returning players: Seniors — Kelsey Collins (5-9 forward), Lauren Beganny (5-7 forward); Juniors — Sadie Goulet (5-6 guard), Danielle Samson (5-4 guard), Vanessa Wright (5-6 guard), Meagan Crosby (5-8 forward), Kayla Veilleux (5-8 forward), Hayley Marshall (5-5 guard), Toni Pushard-Hart (5-6 forward), Iris Abbott (5-6 forward); Sophomores — Jamie Prue (5-5 guard), Grace Sabine (5-7 forward).
Key losses: Julie Morneault (guard), Briana Hodgkins (center), Gabby Green (forward).
Promising newcomers: Sophomores — Brooke Surrette (5-7 forward), Sara Noel (5-7 forward); Freshman — Brianna Mulherin (5-8 forward).
Outlook: The Raiders return four starters from last year’s team that reached the playoffs, including Goulet, the team’s top scorer. Oak Hill also has its first four players off the bench back. The Raiders have a balanced and deeper team with some promising new players. That should keep Oak Hill in the thick of things in the MVC and in the Western B playoff chase.
