Coach: Joel Smith (ninth year)
Last year’s record: 9-5-1, lost in Eastern A preliminary
Returning letter winners: Seniors — Shane Smith (MF), Sam Prentiss (MF), Jared Foster (FB), Alex Lee (MF).
Key losses: Ben Russell (MF), Zack Conlogue (MF), Jamie Sawyer (FB).
Promising newcomers: Senior — Jacob Hartford (FB); Sophomores — Matt Crowley (FB), Steven Yardley (FB); Freshman — Jamie O’Keefe (F).
Outlook: Russell and Conlogue were both all-state midfielders and leave a significant void. The Cougars lost 12 seniors and have a challenge to replace that talent and experience. The Cougars are young and excited for the opportunity to carve out a place for themselves in Eastern A.
