"The Fall 2022 season was one with many peaks and valleys for us as a program, said head coach Sarah Bauman "Overall, we had some really positive takeaways we are bringing into our fall 2023 season, where we will play our first full DI schedule. We saw a lot of players connect and contribute on the field, and we continued to build off of each of our successes throughout season. At times it was difficult to switch back and forth from training on water-based turf for our DI games and field turf for our DII games, but our team took it in stride and showed great resilience, taking it day by day and focusing on one opponent at a time."
"One of the highlights from season was our first Division I win over another DI opponent when we beat Queens 3-1. It was an incredible moment; I could not be more proud of our team's work ethic, energy, and how they played as a unit. It was a game that was especially meaningful to our seniors and two grad students who took their fifth year, as they gave so much to this program throughout their careers and it was a moment they all deserved to be a part of."
