Junior
Katharina Mertz (Buxtehude, Germany) led all Eagles with two shots.
Even though they didn't make the CACC Tournament due to some injuries, coach
Matt Micros was happy with the young team and its improvement throughout the season.
"The girls kept working and really did improve. They showed flashes of brilliance, sandwiched around some inconsistency--which is always the problem with a young group. We are disappointed to not reach the playoffs for the first time in three years, mainly for the seniors, but our freshmen gained invaluable experience and with nearly the entire team returning, along with a couple of red shirts and a strong incoming class, we could be very dynamic next season and return to where we have been as a program for the last few seasons.
