Conference: MVC; Class: C South

Last year’s results: 14-4, lost in quarterfinals.

Returning athletes: Seniors — Audrey Fletcher, Libby Clement, Jordyn Gowell, Katie Harris; Juniors — Abby Flanagan, Emma Johnson; Sophomore — Alexa Allen.

Key losses: Kaeti Butterfield, Abby Ferland, Julia Johnson, Kayla Brooks, Hayley Langlois.

Promising newcomer: Maddie Clough, Katie Laliberte.

Season outlook: Monmouth won 14 games a year ago but lost five players to graduation. Libby Clement, Audrey Fletcher and Emma Johnson should lead the team on offense and defense for first-year coach Katie McAllister, but other Mustangs must step up to make up for the loss of last season’s seniors.
