Coach: Amy Hediger (10th year)

Conference: WMC  Class: B

Last year: 4-10

Returning players: Senior — Sadie Archer (D); Juniors — Morgan Brousseau (D), Lexi Morey (F), Ashley Cloutier (G), Higera Nawass (M), Desiree Menard (F); Sophomores — Brianna Doucette (F), Hwida Nawass (M), Sarah Parent (F).

Key loss: Carly King.

Promising newcomers: Juniors — Koutrney Major (D), Sydney Gosselin (M); Freshman — Ashton Sturtevant (G), Faith Davis (M), Olivia Bell (F), Lauren Lee (F).

Season outlook: Despite having just one senior on the roster, the Knights return 10 field starters and look to earn a spot in playoffs. One big improvement is depth on the bench. Poland fields it biggest team in school history — 34 players. Bell, Lee, and Gosselin will come off the bench to give valuable minutes. Menard, Doucette, Morey, and Parent lead a feisty offense and each are capable of finding the back of the net. Brousseau, Archer, and Major bring aggressiveness and finesse to the defense. Sisters Hwida and Higera Nawass along with freshman Faith Davis have strong defending skills and equally strong offensive push in the midfield. Cloutier and freshman Ashton Sturtevant will be in the cage.
