Coach: Julie Petrie (sixth year)

Last year: 7-10 (Lost in Class C South final)

Returning players: Bree Daigle (M), Kate Philbrick (M), Chase Collier (F); Juniors — Emily Brewer (D), Morgan Fenderson (M), Shelby Cyr (D), Savannah Czechalski (F), Mikaylia Harnden (G); Sophomores — Lindsay Huston (M), Mallory Fairbanks (F), Sydney Plourde (F).

Season outlook: Lisbon came alive last season when it mattered, after a tough start to the campaign. Getting off to a better start this year will be key for the Greyhounds, who have the players to be able to achieve that. Their three seniors have all been around the varsity program for years, and are well-versed in the MVC competition. After a surprise run to the regional final from the bottom of the bracket a year ago, look for a similar goal from this group this season, with a better ending.
