Coach: Jeff Pelletier (first year); Assistant: Peter Koch (eighth year)
Conference: MVC Class: B South
Last year’s record: 7-8, lost in preliminary round
Returning players: Seniors — Brooke Carver (D), Lauren Sterling (G), Hailey Akers (L); Juniors — Kylee Pelletier (D), Taylor Henry (F); Sophomore — Saydie Garbarini (M).
Key losses: Emily Laubauskas (F), Abby Mazza (M), Ashley Russell (D), Julia Perry (M), Grace Briggs (F).
Promising newcomers: Sophomores — Kierstyn Lyons (M), Ellie LeDuc (D), Audra Bean (M), Jenn Boudreau (D); Freshmen — Michaela Beauchesne (M), Gabbie Gallant (M), Courtney Therrien (F), Sarah-Jane Koch (D), Alexis Allegra (M).
What to expect: The Falcons have some holes to fill after graduating what Pelletier called a very talented senior class. There is still a core of skilled players, however, and there is a mix of veterans and newcomers at all three levels. Pelletier is hoping the team can find chemistry and stay in the playoff hunt.
