Pottstown 2016 Field Hockey Preview
Pottstown
Head coach: Brandy Scherer, 11th season.
Last year’s record: 1-12 PAC-10; 3-14 overall.
Players to watch: Junior: Trinity Miller, midfield. Sophomores: Jayla Holloway, midfield; Da’zah Regusters, forward; Elsie Cannell, forward; Reilly Owens, defense.
Outlook: The Trojans can take solace in knowing that all three of last season’s wins came against now-PAC opponents. Pottstown posted shutouts against Pottsgrove and Upper Merion early last season then posted a 2-1 win over Norristown late on the year. However, they’ll be without All-Area First Team goalie Ebony Reddick, who will be playing soccer this fall. Boasting a lineup without much senior leadership and peppered with sophomores, the Trojans may take time to find an identity. “Our focus will be on teamwork, communication and dedication,” said Scherer. “With such a young group, this will be a great learning experience for many of the girls that will build their confidence for the upcoming years.”
