Season outlook: A solid core of athletes returns after making the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season. The underclassmen will have big shoes to fill due to graduation, but with hard work, this team has potential to at least equal last year’s output. The experience of the playoffs for the fourth consecutive year and making another good run last year has really given the program the confidence it needs to compete with teams at all levels. The team’s goal, as with any season, is to be playing its best soccer at the end of October.
