Coach’s Outlook for 2023: “We are a young team with only 4 upper classmen on Varsity but that only means we have time to grow as a team. While we might be a young bunch but there is no shortage of talent or drive to win. This season we are looking to shake things up. Our goal for our home opener was to make a statement that we are not the same team we were last year and that is exactly what we accomplished with a 15 – 2 win over Hatboro Horsham who beat us by 6 goals the year prior. We plan to maintain that same energy and grit throughout the season with a goal of a winning record or better. We came ready to compete.”
