Coach: ?Colin Griggs (second season)?
Conference: MAISAD; Class: C South
Last year’s results: 12-5 (lost in Class C South quarterfinals)
Returning athletes: Seniors — Megan Gooding, Louisa Ellis; Junior — Maddy New; Sophomores — Franceska Halloran, Reily New.

Promising newcomers: Sophomore — Eliza Quinones.
Season outlook: ?In their best season since 2009-10, the Lumberjacks won the MAISAD championship last season and entered the MPA Class C South tournament as the No. 5 seed before falling to Traip in the preliminary round.?
Junior Maddy New and sophomore Franceska Halloran combined for more than 550 points in 2016-17, and they will once again be counted on to lead the Lumberjacks’ offense.
Sophomore Eliza Quinones brings size to a frontcourt that returns only senior Louisa Ellis and sophomore Reily New, while Megan Goding, a senior, returns in the backcourt.
The Lumberjacks have beefed up their schedule with two games against Richmond and an additional matchup with Temple.
