The team finished last season 39-11, but lost two of its top players when second baseman MacKenzi Dorsam and pitcher/first baseman Brooke Harmening graduated.

There will be multiple returning players across the field for the Eagles, including four returning pitchers.

There will also be seven returning players in defensive positions, including junior outfielder Grace Clark, who led the team with a .368 batting average and six homeruns.

Eight other players return to the infield along with one pitcher, senior Sarah Owens.

The team’s season begins Feb. 20.
