Coach: Cindy Goddard (22nd year)

Returning players: Seniors — Marisa Hanning, Hannah Warren, Kellie Wilcox, Jessica Gauthier, Shelby Richardson, Rachel Brennan; Juniors — Ashley West, Heather Verrier, Dominique Hutchins, Mikeckney Ward, Kali Dixon.

Key losses: Mariah Kimball, Ebony Mills.

Promising newcomers: Sophomores — Hannah Lyons, Amanda Hanning, Micaela Smith, Gabby Goodall, Meghan Feely, Abi Egan; Freshmen — Jess Murch, Erica Jackson, Becky Mason.

Outlook: Kimball and Mills will deifnitely be missed this season, but the majority of the team’s varsity lineup from a year ago is back, and the Vkings are certainly a contender for a home game in the first round of the KVAC playoffs and then some. There is good senior leadership in this group, and there is a good mix of talented younger players there to push the veterans.

Coach’s comment: “This team has good senior leadership and good team chemistry. If the group stays healthy, we will have a successful season.” — Coach Cindy Goddard
