Coach: Aaron Rand (fourth year)
Last year’s record: 6-8-2, lost in Western B quarterfinal
Returning letter winners: Seniors — Libby Bernier (F), Sophie Geelhoed (MF), Brittany Michaud (MF), Abbie Rand (F), Sara Sands (FB), Stephanie Spaulding (FB), Samantha St. Piere (G), Kelsie Taylor (F); Juniors — Kate Bridgham (MF), Morgan Copp (MF), Cassie Mocciola (MF); Sophomores — Jen Powell (MF), Molly Rand (F).
Key losses: Jen Baril (F), Hilary Clark (MF), Taylor Girouard (MF), Tessa Mascetta (FB), Dalia Lapinas (MF), Kelsey Nadeau (FB), Becca Wright (F).
Promising newcomers: Seniors — Celeste Knowles (FB), Banu Parakenings (FB); Junior — Stephanie Sirois (MF); Sophomores — Makayla Dube (F), Abbie Kethchen (MF), Katrina Seeley (F); Freshmen — Paxton Arsenault (FB), Sophie Spiller (FB), Keiko Sneed (G), Emma Turton (F).
Outlook: The Knights graduated some key players from last year but still return a veteran group that could have Poland chasing another playoff berth. Taylor was a threat up front last year. Michaud bring experience to the midfield while Spaulding, Sands and Geelhoed form a strong defense in front of St. Pierre in net.
Coach’s comment:
“Playing all the top teams in Western B this season will be a challenge. We are hoping to catch a few teams by surprise and make a third playoff appearance in the last three years.” — Coach Aaron Rand
