Season Outlook:? After reaching the Centennial Conference tournament for the third straight season and eighth time in the last nine campaigns, the Fords lose the veteran leadership of All-Centennial Conference first-teamer Stephanie Terrell but will return the majority of their offensive firepower with 34 goals in total from returners.
In the midfield, Rachel Gordon and Caroline Aronowitz have proven to be amongst the conference's top players, serving as an important cog in both the offense and defensive game plans for the Fords.
Rette capped an impressive career between the pipes for the Fords, but her graduation cedes duties to sophomore Sunny Truslow and first-year Hannah Roth.
