Spring-Ford 2016 Field Hockey Preview
Spring-Ford
Head coach: Jennie Anderson, sixth season.
Last year’s record: 7-5-1 PAC-10; 10-8-1 overall.
Players to watch: Seniors: Lexie Nugent, forward. Juniors: Clare Kennedy, midfield; Erin Wilson, defense.
Outlook: The Rams will have some holes to fill, including the shoes of 2015 Mercury All-Area First Team goalie Claire Kraft. Nugent (Miami University-Ohio commit) and Kennedy (Brown University commit) return in hopes of leading a young Spring-Ford team back to the district tournament. “We are going to be a young team but have a lot of returning players from last year’s team,” said Anderson. “We are looking to be competitive in the PAC and to gain the lessons learned from competing in last season’s district playoff tournament.”
