Edward Little High School ELHS BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Dave Morin (31st year) Last year’s record: 8-4-3, lost in Eastern A quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors —Jon Delorme (FB), Cam Ivers (FB), James Jackson (FB), Tim Mains (MF/ SK), Taka Ranucci (SK), Ken Romero (FB); Juniors — Nate Blais (MF), Jared Pelletier (SK), Ian Therriault (MF), Adam Timberlake (MF); Sophomore — Zack Tannenbaum (MF). Key losses: Branden Lever (MF), Steven Giorgetti (FB), Jeremy Theriault (FB), Clark Chamberlain (FB), Austin Polisky (MF), Dexter Forbes (FB); Tim Brodsky (MF), Tom Lynch (FB), Tyler Shennett (MF). Promising newcomers: Senior — Justin Forbes (MF); Juniors — Ben Bowles (G), Jeremy Hamm (G), Taylor Ramich (FB), Ethan Polisky (FB), Brandon Cote (MF), Richard Grondin (MF), Nigel Bowles (MF); Sophomores — Corey Morin (FB), Connor Harris (MF), Nickolas Cote (SK); Freshmen — Brady Pleau (SK), Michael Cote (G). Outlook: The Red Eddies lost a ton of talent on the defensive end, where EL is typically strongest. It will take some time for players to adjust to new roles but with 11 players back, EL should fill the holes and remain competitive in the KVAC. Coach’s comment: “We’re rebuilding our defense from the goal on out. There are several positions that players are competing for during preseason, which should provide a challenging at m o sp h e r e t h at h o p e f u l l y develops some mental toughness. Getting healthy and developing

some depth will be key to our success.” — Coach Dave Morin

ELHS FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Greg Perkins (20th year) Last year’s record: 5-8-1 (Lost in Class A quarterfinal) Returning players: Seniors — Ashley Butler, Marie DufresneDixon, Maranda Parent, Emily Ranucci, Bri Robbins, Miranda Martin; Juniors — Tori Couture, Gabby Laperriere, Kayla Nadeau, Jordan Tate, Maddie Williamson. Key losses: Christine Bilodeau, Jess Campbell, Kayla Cummings, Sam Dean, Katherine Harmon, Brit Tardif, Hilary Tate, Katie Williamson. Promising newcomers: Senior — Eileen McKinney; Juniors — Courtney Pelletier, Danielle Demers; Sophomores — Amanda W illiams, Hannah Johns ton, Samantha Goulette. Outlook: Edward Little lost eight starters to graduation from a solid team. The Eddies traditionally have depth, and that will be a key this season as they look to replace half of last year’s varsity squad. If the younger players learned well from the outgoing players, the Eddies will be in the playoff discussion again. Coach’s comment: ”We are working hard on becoming a playoff team. The KVAC is always a very competitive league, and I expect it to be again this year.” — Coach Greg Perkins

ELHS FOOTBALL Coach: Dave Sterling (first year) Last year’s record: 1-7 Returning players: Seniors — Teven Colon (TB/FS), Josh Delong (QB), Cory Spruill (FB/NG), Avery Jackson (T/DT), Ben Bellevue (G/DE), Cody Meserve (C/DT), Alex Smith (G/LB), Zach Earle (T/DE), Spencer Emerson (Slot/LB), Zach Leblond (TE/SS), Ken Treadwell (SE/CB); Junior — Luc Farrago (FB/LB). Key losses: Branson Vye (TB/LB), Wade Colon (G/DT). Promising newcomers: N/A. Outlook: It’s been a turbulent 12 months for the Red Eddies, with three head coaches presiding during that time. The hope is Sterling, a former EL assistant returning via a head-coaching stint at Scarborough, and a senior-laden roster can instill stability and get back to the PTC playoffs. Colon, who played QB last year, is a shifty playmaker capable of breaking long runs. The Eddies will try to spread opponents out and use a physical offensive line to open running lanes for him. Coach’s comment: “One of the blessings we have in our program is a very big senior class of about 20 guys.” — Coach Dave Sterling

ELHS GOLF Coach: Richard Dahlquist (fourth year) Last year’s record: 2-7 Returning players: Seniors — Cody Russell, Brian Bickford; Juniors — Nate Corliss, Travis Landry. Key losses: None given. Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Nate Puchard, Cooper Easter, Brandon Dubuc. Outlook: The Eddies return a

good group of players and should improve upon last year’s finish. The top of the lineup is solid, with Russell and Bickford. The team won’t likely be the best team in the conference, but there will be some wins along the way this season. Coach’s comment: ”I think we’re a team to contend with. We won’t beat everyone, but we can beat some of them.” — Coach Richard Dahlquist

ELHS GIRLS’ SOCCER Coach: Craig Latuscha (first year) Last year’s record: 6-7-2, lost in Eastern A quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors —Emily Grund (MF), Frankie Lally (FB/SK), Laurent Bennett (MF), Kelsey Letourneau (FB); Juniors — Emily Hartnett (MF/SK), Marykate Masters (FB/MF), Kelly Philbrook (FB), Jaclyn Masters (MF/SK), Phoebe Chamberlain (FB), Melissa Paione (FB); Sophomores — Kate Sawyer (MF), Lexis Clavet (MF). Key losses: Kirsten Prue (G), Hanna Mogensen (MF), Katie St. Hilaire (MF), Lindsey Rogers (FB), Deanna Morency (FB), Hillary Turcotte (MF), Jessica Nyholm (FB). Promising newcomers: Junior — Magna Heir (MF); Sophomores — Abby Bellefleur (MF), Allairie Lever (MF), Ashley Arnold (G); Freshmen — Kory Norcross (SK), Brittney Myrick (FB), Rebeka Able (SK/FB), Taylor Landry (G). Outlook: Latuscha takes over the girls’ program after coaching the boys’ JV squad. EL lost an all-star keeper in Prue and experience in the midfield and defense. There are still 12 players back, many of which saw time last year. The midfield and defense has experience, but replacing Prue in goal will be a challenge. New players will help try to bring a balanced attack up front.

Coach’s comment: “A solid core of student athletes return after playing several games together throughout the summer. Our ultimate goal is to be competitive with all teams throughout the conference and to improve as a team throughout the regular season.” — Coach Craig Latuscha

ELHS CROSS COUNTRY Coach: Ralph Fletcher (first year) Returning letter winners: Boys: Seniors —Faisal Noor, Hussein Mohamed; Sophomore — Nate Mulligan; Girls: Seniors — Abby Hart, Melissa Brown; Sophomore — Hayley Barton. Key l o s s e s : B o y s : Fa i s a l Abdillahi, Jaron Jones; Girls: Jenny Bergeron Promising newcomers: Boys: Junior — Justin Leclerc, Brady Julian, Nick Johnson; Sophomores — Luc Bourget, Braden Deraps, Adam Robinson; Freshman — Izaac White. Outlook: Fletcher is filling in for long-time coach Dan Campbell, who is out west helping a friend organize a marathon. Campbell will be back for some home meets and the end of the season, when the Red Eddies could be a factor in the KVAC and Eastern A championships. After a promising track season, Noor figures to be one of the top runners in Class A. Mohamed and new additions Bourget and White complete a solid top four. The girls’ team is as thin as it has been in some time, although Hart finished 26th at states in 2009. Coach’s comment: “The boys will be strong if our fifth comes in.” — Coach Ralph Fletcher

Lewiston High School LHS BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Mike McGraw (28th year) Last year’s record: 9-3-3, lost in Eastern A quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors — Caleb Leino (F), Curtis Robinson (MF), Jon McDonough (MF), Ali Hersi (MF/F), Shobow Saban (F), Joe Sullivan (FB), Tyler Hartman (MF/FB), Eric Morin (MF), Scott Ouellette (G). Key losses: Ahmed Abdirahman (FB), JJ M uss e (M F ), M at t Beauparlant (MF), Chris Jacques (G), Subeer Osman (SK), Kyle Rousseau (FB), Kurtis Stocker (SK), Keagan Cote (FB), Ahmed Mohamed (SK), Dave Ouellette (FB), Mason Gates (G), Abdullahi Omer (FB), Ahmed Mohamed (F). Promising newcomers: Seniors — Eric Hall (F/MF), Chase Cote (MF), Ryan Lemelin (FB); Juniors — Benji Saban (F), Dahir Muktar (F), Ibrahim Achekh (F); Sophomore — Eric Soucy (G); Freshman — Yusuf Yama (MF/F) . Outlook: The Blue Devils lost a wealth of talent and experience from last year. Hersi, an all-state pick, leads the nine returning players. Lewiston should have speed up front and experience in back, led by Robinson and Sullivan. Ouellette should step in nicely for Jacques in goal. Coach’s comment: “If the Blue Devils stay healthy and play well as a team, they can hang well in a very deep and competitive KVAC. If the n e w co m e r s g a i n v a l u a b l e e x p e r i e n ce , a n d w e h ave outstanding team play, we can make the playoffs and then see how far this group can go.” — Coach Mike McGraw

LHS FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Amie Sherry (third year) Last year’s record: 2-10 Returning players: Sara Marden, Allison Lafreniere, Saba Naja, Kierstyn Barnies, Kirstin McCombs. Key losses: Carley Dennis, Hanah Amhmed, Ruth Choate, Emily Craig, Angela Martel, Megan Pettilier, Yasmeen Barich. Promising newcomers: Kelsey Dumond, Natalie Rousseau. Outlook: After a two-win season, the Blue Devils have good reason to be cautiously optimistic. A good core of offensive players remains from last year’s squad, and will have to score to help out a younger defensive unit. The of fense is strong with sophmores. The defense is young, with a new senior goalie in Lafreniere. Coach’s comment: ”I think the team this year will be competitive with a strong forward line and midfield.” — Coach Amie Sherry

LHS GOLF Coach: Bob Blanchette (fourth year) Last year’s record: 7-3 (lost in KVAC quarterfinal) Returning players: Senior — Scott Gagne; Juniors — Kevin Shrader, Brandon Tiner; Sophomores — Cameron Marquis, Nick Gilbert. Key losses: N/A. Promising newcomers: Seniors — Evan Carrier, Jesse Leeman. Outlook: The team will remain competitive in the KVAC, and should be in the hunt for the playof fs. A state qualif ying score isn’t out of the question,

with Gagne and Shrader to lead the team at the top. Tiner is much improved, as are the team’s returning sophomores, and the addition of a pair of seniors will help the overall depth. Coach’s comment: “We want to play again in October. That was our goal my first three years here, we did it last year and we hope to do it again this year.” — Coach Bob Blanchette

LHS GIRLS’ SOCCER Coach: Butch Dow (first year) Last year’s record: 2-11-1 Returning letter winners: Seniors — Elizabeth Dixon (FB), Britney Martin (MF), Jessica Bowen (FB), Liz Aguilar (MF), Shelby Dobransky (MF); Juniors — Kayla Hamel (MF), Kenzi Sullivan (MF), Shae Godbout (SW), Tori White (MF); Sophomores — Tori Denis (MF), Lauren Lessard (FB). Key losses: Emilie Cloutier (FB), Chelsea Delcourt (F), Regina Smith (FB), Sage Sylvia (MF), Jill St. Laurent (F), Beth Lebel (G). Promising newcomers: Juniors — Mackenzi Masselli (G), Emily Dixon (F); Sophomores — Brianna Lajoie (MF), Emily Paione (FB), Mariah Carrier (FB); Freshmen — Maegan Mathon (F), Morgan Bowen (F). Outlook: The Blue Devils have won just six games total over the last two seasons. Lewiston has been competitive with most teams, but just haven’t been able to come out on top. Dow comes in hoping to turn that fortune around. The team is young and building, but excited about improving. Coach’s comment: “There’s a new coach, new attitude and a new season. Hold on for the ride. We hope to surprise a lot of people and bring pride back to Lewiston girls’ soccer. Hard work will bring rewards and surprises.” — Coach Butch Dow

Coach: Jamerson Crowley (second year) Returning letter winners: Boys: Seniors —Hussein Ibrahim, Tanner Adams, Russ Taligiuri; Juniors — Kevin L aver tu, M at t Chouinard, Michael Letendre, Ian Roy; Sophomores — Mohammed Barre, Andrew Balsamo, Jordan Balsamo; Girls: Senior — Ali Butler; Juniors — Nicole CourtMenendez; Joy Harrington; Stacy Oswald; Sophomores — Sylvia Beliveau, Jessica Lalonde, Kristin DiBello. Key l o s s e s : B o y s : Fa i s a l Abdillahi, Jaron Jones; Girls: Jenny Bergeron Promising newcomers: Boys: Seniors — Kyle Clabby, Kyle Palmer; Junior — Christian Staer; Freshman — Sarhan Abdillahi; Girls: Senior — Kelsey Kramer; Freshman — Saith Shaw. Outlook: The Blue Devils are looking to improve on last year’s showing. The boys, who finished sixth in the KVAC and fifth in Eastern A, hope to compete for both titles with Ibrahim, who is building off a strong finish to the 2009 season, and Lavertu, who could be on the verge of being a top 15 runner. The girls’ goal is to make the state meet, and if they can build a pack behind CourtMenendez and Butler, they’ll have a shot. Coach’s comment: “The girls really want to qualify for the state meet this year. They’re going to have to work hard for it. Top three in the KVAC and regionals is reasonable for the boys..” — Coach Jamerson Crowley

Coach: Bill County (11th year) Last year’s record: 6-3, lost in Eastern A quarterfinals Returning players: Seniors — Cody Dussault (FB/LB), Jeff Keene (TB/DB), Ben Wigant (G/ MLB), Elliott Chicoine (T/DT); Juniors — Matt Therrien (TB/ slot/DB), Jeff Turcotte (FB/DE). Key losses: Ronnie Turner (QB), Seth Mason (QB), Andy Pulk (TB/ DE), Tyler Nunez (FB/LB), Kris Gagne (OL/DL), Peter Blais (WR/ DB), Eddie Chan (FB/DL). Promising newcomers: Senior — Abdi Osman (WR/DB); Junior — Chris Madden (QB), Joe McKinnon (FB/LB) Outlook: The Blue Devils are green in some key spots, but still should be at or near the top of the PTC South. They spent an uncharacteristic amount of the last two years throwing the ball, but a return to the run-first style County’s teams are known for isn’t out of the question. Keene is the speedy lead back, but Turcotte, Therrien and McKinnon will contribute to the ground game, too. Madden takes over at quarterback and has an intriguing target in Osman. Wigant anchors a fast, swarming defense. Coach’s comment: “We’re very young. I think we have only seven seniors on the team and five are starting.” — Coach Bill County

Coach’s comment: “I’m anxious to see how this season plays out. Our team is small in number, but we seem to make up for it in our tenacity.

Outlook: The Cougars narrowly missed a playoff spot last fall but graduated plenty of talent, including Thompson an allstate defender. Mt. Blue still has nine players returning and 14 new players coming in. It will take time for the inexperienced players to adjust, but the Cougars will be a team on the rise as this club gains its footing.

Mt. Blue FOOTBALL Coach: Gary Parlin (18th year) L a s t ye a r ’s r e c o r d: 3 - 6 , lost to Bangor in Eastern A quarterfinals Returning players: Seniors — A.J. Larrabee (WR/CB), Ethan Kyes ( T E / IR / D E ), Br an d o n Cochran (T/NG), Matt Archer (T/DT), Dillan Burnham (G/LB), Colton Miranda (LB); Juniors — Eric Berry (WR/CB), Cam Sennick (QB/IR/FS). Key losses: Ryan Backus (QB/ FS), Nick Watson (G/DE), Zach Tracy (C/LB), Jake Malone (IR/CB), Dana Kane (RB/CB), Alec Wallace (LB), Dan York (T). Promising newcomers: Seniors — Dakota Savage (G), Brandon Scott (C), Matt Davis (RB/LB), Nick Luker (DT), Adam Lewia (DE); Junior — Isaiah Tracy (RB); Sophomore — Jordan Whitney (QB). Outlook: With seniors at 17 of the 22 starting positions and a bumper crop of 23 juniors on the roster, Mt. Blue flaunts its most experienced team in years. The Cougars threw a playoff scare into eventual Eastern Class A champion Bangor and hope to build on that this fall. The Cougars will cover for the loss of all-around athlete Backus with a possible QB rotation of Sennick and Whitney. Larrabee, Kyes, Berry and Sennick give the offense a surplus of receivers. Cochran, Archer and Kyes are multi-year starters on the defensive front five. In a more balanced PTC, the Cougars could contend for their first title since 2005. Coach’s comment: “Most of our varsity players are going to be juniors and seniors. This is the first time we’ve had that in a long time.” — Coach Gary Parlin

Lewiston for a year, and Ratkovsky, a foreign- exchange student. Cullenberg expects closer pack times than recent boys teams. The girls will rank among the KVAC and Eastern A elite again with the improvement of Addie Cullenberg and Beacham and Stancioff and Hilton building off strong finishes in 2009. Coach’s comment: “I think it would be pretty realistic for (the boys) to try to be top five at KVACs and regionals and qualify for states. On the girls side, it’s really exciting to see the additions that we have, and the girls that are back are really working hard.” — Coach Kelly Cullenberg

Mt. Blue GOLF Coach: Mark Cyr (third year) Last year’s record: 6-4 Returning players: Seniors — Dom Clements, Clint Orcutt, Jordan Williams, Adam Wiles; Juniors — Derek Hoyt, Matt Dustin. Key losses: Garrett Goodridge, Alex Witt. Promising newcomers: None. Outlook: There are no new faces here, but some of the returners are playing much better. Dustin is turning in some nice numbers and Derek Hoyt has had some good rounds. The Cougars should be competitive. They lost some good players, but the second-tier players froma year ago are , so far, up to the task. Coach’s comment: ”Our goal is to make it to the playoffs again this year, but a little higher so we can advance to the next level.” — Coach Mark Cyr

Mt. Blue FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Jeannine Paradis (eighth year) Last year’s record: 2-12

Returning players: Seniors — Jillian Perron (M), Elizabeth Leclair (M), Marcy Smith (M/F), Kelsea Adams (M), Micheala Yeaton (Back), Sarah Hunter (Back); Juniors — Taylor Harris (Back), Nichole Tracey (M), Taylor Gaboury (M), Mariah Gaboury (Back), Meghan Bullen (F). Key losses: Kaitlyn Bullen, Amanda Hall, Tori Toothaker, Maria Rowe, Miranda Collins, Jenny Kobischen. Promising newcomers: Senior — Hiliary Chaney (Back); Juniors — Heather Harrington (M), Corinne Dingley (Back); Sophomores — Kayla Newbill (F), Alyssa Williams (F), Monica Danforth (F), Kasey Gaboury (G); Freshmen — Katerina Bessey (F), Mikayla Oswald (F), Sarita Crandall (F). Outlook: It was a tough year for the Cougars a year ago after key injuries derailed a lot of the team’s top players. Early in the season, injuries are again an issue, but it appears that may clear up in time for the meat of the season. The team is young overall, and the experience the team has is in the midfield and on the back end in front of a green goalie. Mt. Blue has speed up front, and lots of youth. Coach’s comment: “ We hope to be scrappy and continue to play tough. I think we’ll definitely improve this season over where we finished last year.” — Coach Jeannine Paradis

Key losses: Ethan Morin (F) Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Nik Conrad (MF), Travis Brown (MF), Eric Lowell (F). Outlook: The Rebels dipped down to five wins after winning nine due to significant graduation losses. Telstar has a solid core of the team back and could be poised to improve upon last year and be a competitive club in the MVC. Coach’s comment:

Telstar FIELD HOCKEY “I feel we have the potential for a great season. These guys have worked hard this preseason and have given t h e m s e l v e s a Jamie Steven good foundation to build upon. They have a great understanding of the game and are not afraid of a little hard work. We are looking for ward to the Katie Sumner season ahead.” — Coach Greg Luetje

Susan Newkirk (M), Hunter Verrill (Full); Sophomore — Tabitha Corriveau (G). Outlook: An absolute force last season, a few of the pieces that made the Rebels so strong are gone to graduation. But, as usual, the tank isn’t even close to empty here. Telstar ought to be one of the top teams in the MVC and in the state in Class C again. With 10 seniors still in the lineup, this veteran-laden squad is most certainly going to be in contention. Coach’s comment: “Our shooting accuracy has improved in the preseason, so circle play should be exciting. We are working on transition play for clean defensive action.” — Coach Gail Wight

year. A few losses, one to graduation and another pair to another sport, will hurt, but the trio of juniors at the top will be solid to lead the team. A finish equal to or better than last year would be a successful season in Bethel. Coach’s comment: “We hope to be competitive this season, but we’ll have to put in the practice hours to improve our game.” — Coach Jim Lunney

Promising newcomers: Boys: Senior — Rick Aguilar; Junior — Casey Kellner; Freshman — Josef Holt-Andrews. Outlook: Telstar’s top performers in the Class C state championship races are back.

Outlook: The Vikings have 13 players returning, including Morin, an all-star pick. With that much experience back, Oxford Hills hopes to improve from last year and be a more competitive club in the KVAC.

Precious Plots

Key losses: None. Promising newcomers: Senior — Melissa Lebel; Sophomores — Dylan Cox, Jake Plummer; Freshmen — Ben Morton, Dalton Rice, Matt Michaud, Jonah Williams, Tom Lentz. Outlook: The Vikings are going to be a young team this year, but a trio of returning juniors should help carry the team, especially at home at the friendly confines of Norway Country Club. Williams is a rising star for the Vikings, who could be a thorn in teams’ sides. Coach’s comment: “ We’ll be competitive. We may not beat the top teams in the conference, and we’re a young team, but we’ll get better as the year goas on and we could surprise some people.” — Coach Mike Grace

Oxford FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Cindy Goddard (22nd year) Returning players: Seniors — Marisa Hanning, Hannah Warren, Kellie Wilcox, Jessica Gauthier, Shelby Richardson, Rachel Brennan; Juniors — Ashley West, Heather Verrier,

Promising newcomers: Sophomores — Hannah Lyons, Amanda Hanning, Micaela Smith, Gabby Goodall, Meghan Feely, Abi Egan; Freshmen — Jess Murch, Erica Jackson, Becky Mason. Outlook: Kimball and Mills will deifnitely be missed, but the majority of the team’s varsity lineup from a year ago is back. The Vkings are certainly a contender for a home game in the first round of the KVAC playoffs and then some. There is good senior leadership in this group, and there is a good mix of talented younger players to push the veterans. Coach’s comment: “This team has good senior leadership and good team chemistry. If the

Key losses: Kyle Eastman (F), Richard Griffith (F), Dustin Dionne (FB), Mike Littlefield (G). Promising newcomers: Juniors —Dillon Douglass (G), Trevor Morin (MF), Logan Nicholas (F), Jacob Littlefield (MF), Nate Ray (FB). Outlook: The Knights have won four games in the last three seasons and continue to build the program. Poland has a small collection of seniors with experience that should help lead the team as it tries to improve. Coach’s comment: “We are continuing to build a competitive program built on teamwork and hoping to make a playoff spot.” — Coach Allen Hanson

Poland FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Amy Hediger (fourth year) Last year’s record: 0-13-1 Returning players: Senior — Haley Pierce (M/D); Juniors — Felicia Baril (F), Heidi Chipman (F), Chelsey King (F); Sophomores — Paige Brousseau (M/D), Mimi

Outlook: The Knights return a strong core of eight sophomores, who all saw plenty of action last year. Baril, Chipman and King are a new offensive combination, but, according to coach Hediger, have spent a lot of time over the summer and during preseason working to spark the team down the field. The Knights have nowhere to go but up from last year, and they appear well on their way. Coach’s comment: “This year our goal is to continue to develop our individual skills and increase our poise and understanding of the game.” — Coach Amy Hediger

Outlook: The Knights graduated 10 seniors from last year, including a talented scorer in Taylor. There’s some experience in the midfield and in goal, but many new players step into large roles. The Knights do return players that could help keep the club competitive in a tough WMC schedule. Coach’s comment: “We have great team speed on the front line. We will be looking to surprise a few teams and get back to the postseason for the third time in four years.” — Coach Aaron Rand

Jay GIRLS’ SOCCER Coach: Jon Blaisdell (first year) Last year’s record: 8-5-2, lost in Western B quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors —Beth Moore (MF), Alannah White (MF), Britni Hutchinson (F), Katie Beaulieu (G); Junior — Alexi Deering (F); Sophomores — Emily Acritelli (FB), Lindsey Allen (FB), Casidee Couture (F), Alison ChicoineBates (FB). Key losses: Jennica Turner (MF), Kristen Delavan (F). Promising newcomers: Junior — Samantha Hutchinson (F); Sophomore — Natashia Couture (FB); Freshmen — Brianna Martin (MF), Brittany Carrier (F). Outlook: Jay is no longer a combined team with Livermore Falls. Blaisdell has 17 players, but has nine regulars back from a year ago, including Deering, the team’s top scorer. There’s experience in the midfield and on defense as well, making Jay a solid threat in the MVC. Coach’s comment: “The outlook is surprisingly good. I have really good senior leadereship. Our top goal scorer is only a junior, and the new girls are filling the holes fairly well. Summer soccer went well. We played much more than in the past, and I am seeing the benefits

of that already. The team looks better now than it did at the same time last year. If we keep working

hard, we will be competitive again this year.” — Coach Jon Blaisdell

Coach: Sean Galipeau-Eldridge (ninth year) Returning letter winners: Boys: Seniors —Ben Albee, Joe Bernhard, Tim Landry, Troy Ashcroft; Juniors — Jake MacDonald, Connor Pinkham; Sophomores — Jeremy

Key losses: Girls: Caroline Blake, Natasha Piirainen, Maggie Norton Promising newcomers: Boys: Junior

— Andrew Peterson; Sophomores — Dillon Soucy, Taylor Wood; Girls: Sophomore — Johanna Moody; Freshmen — Renee Reid, Anna Poirier, Journee Levasseur. Outlook: The Knights should be improved in the treacherous Western Maine Conference. The boys remain young, but have

senior leaders ready to step up and keep the team focused. Lobley, an 800-meter track champion who qualified for the New England cross country champioships in 2009, will be among the top competitors in Class B. Enthusiastic new additions could help Poland improve as the season unfolds.

Key losses: Noah Bosworth (MF), Corey Dyke (MF), Allen Thomas (FB), Morgan Bergeron (F), Ted Adams (F), Nic Cyr (F). Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Brandon Goff (FB), Kyle Fletcher (SK). Outlook: Fletcher takes over the Monmouth program after a long tenure at Oak Hill. The Mustangs hope to make significant improvement this season despite having just 15 players. Columbe,

Goff and Neal make the defense solid. Trenholm, West and Ashlock make for an experienced midfield, while Whitmore and Fletcher should provide some punch up front. Coach’s comment: “I’m excited about the effort, attitude and willingness to adopt a new system. We are going to employ a ball-control system to keep fresh legs.

Key losses: Brandon Shink (MF). Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Adam Gettle (MF), Dustin Jones (G), Eric Taylor (FB), Lucas Preble (F), Jared Roy (MF). Outlook: The Tigers only graduated one senior but still have no seniors among the returning players. Jay still has all but one starter back and worked hard during the summer to improve skills. The Tigers expect to be young but still improve upon last year. Coach’s comment: “ If we stay together and continue to work together, this team will have success on the field and off the field.” — Coach Kelly Wells

Coach: Jane DiPompo Last year’s record: 11-5 Re t u rni n g p l aye r s: S e ni o r s — C assie B e li veau, Lin ds ay Couture, Brittany DiPompo, Bri Farrington; Juniors — Ashlee Quirrion; Kour tney Brennick , Catie Castonguay, Ashley Dorey; Sophomores — Rachel Calden, Katelin Castonguay, Jahna Couture, Natalie Couture, Mel Robittaille, Katrina Millet. Key losses: Mallory Bonnevie, Kelsea Beisaw, Anne Harvell, Shayna Meserve, Gina Nemi, Eliza Gemelli, Bri Pottle. Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Mariah Castonguay, Randi Duguay, Bryana Longley, Kayla Meserve, Victoria Ouellette, Kendra Peart, Emily Taylor, Alyssa Timberlake, Caitlyn Wright. Outlook: Jay has small numbers this year, so players are going to have to be versatile and be willing and able to play multiple positions. There are a lot of goals missing from a year ago, and some solid defense, but the big crew of freshmen is encouraging. The four senior captains will be looked upon for leadership as the Tigers battle it out in a tough MVC. Coach’s comment: ”We look forward to the season and will look forward to the challenge of keeping pace with the rest of the Mountain Valley Conference.” — Coach Jane DiPompo

Jay FOOTBALL Coach: Mark Bonnevie (ninth year) Last year’s record: 3-5 Returning players: Seniors — Jordan D. Couture (RB/DB), Kyle Storer (TE/LB), Mat Ferland (C/LB), Matt Lancaster (G/NG); Juniors — Zach Bonnevie (QB/CB), Bill Calden (RB/LB), Andrew Stearns (FB/LB), Ron Holland (T/DT). Key losses: Austin Clark (QB/DB), Jordan DeMillo (FB/LB), Tyler Dorr (OL/DL), Jared Ouellette (RB/LB). Promising newcomers: Senior — Jordan P. Couture (T/DT); Juniors — Nate Shink (WR/LB), Ryan Pelletier (LB), Jake Bessey (WR/CB). Outlook: Jay’s numbers are up slightly to 28 players. That’s good news, because the Tigers’ depth may have been a factor in costing the team some second-half leads and ultimately preventing a playoff appearance for the second straight year. Calden and Couture give the Tigers a potent backfield, while Bonnevie takes over the QB spot with two handy targets, Storer and Bessey, at his disposal. There’s ample experience on the offensive line, too. Winning a couple of close games early in the season would give Jay both a big mental boost and a leg up in what promises to be another close Western C playoff race. Coach’s comment: ”Our strength is definitely up front and defensively. That’s where we have the most starters back.” — Coach Mark Bonnevie

Jay CROSS COUNTRY Coach: Randy Easter (first year) Returning players: Girls: Seniors — Marlee Dubord, Naomi Gettle. Promising newcomers: Girls: Senior — Shauni Flagg; Junior — Lindsey Jacques. Outlook: Jay essentially is a firstyear varsity team, although Dubord and Gettle competed as individuals last year. Easter, a well-known member of the local running community and longtime coach, hopes to lure a few of Jay’s other track and field athletes over to the team once school starts. Coach’s comment: “Marlee and Naomi are the one who got cross country going again at Jay.” — Coach Randy Easter

G-NG BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Mike Dehetre (fourth year) Last year’s record: 8-6-1, lost in Western B quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors —Tyler Holmquist (G/F), Ryan Sullivan (FB), Kolby Arnold (MF), Ben Verrill (FB), Ryan Cavallaro (G/FB), Matt Kane (FB), Danny Street ((MF); Juniors — Ian Martell (MF), Craig Moreau (F), Donovan Hodges (FB); Sophomores — Will Bartlett (MF), Jack Martell (F), Jake Street (FB). Key losses: Evan Kenney (G), Erik Schrader (F), Aaron Ricardi (FB), Sam Liberty-Langlais (FB), James Wurgler (FB), Sam Hildrith (MF). Promising newcomers: Senior — Zach Knapp (F); Juniors — Travis Hicks (FB), Ben Jordan (F), Nick Jordan (MF); Sophomore — Josh Kane (F); Freshmen — Noah Lobozzo (F), Austin McDonald (MF). Outlook: The Patriots doubled their number of wins last year from the previous fall. With 13 players from that squad back, GNG hopes to remain a team to watch in the WMC and Western B.

Monmouth from page 12

Monmouth CROSS COUNTRY Coach: Tom Menendez (ninth year) Returning players: Boys: Seniors — Kevin Desmond, Pat McInnis, Zeke Merrill, Henr y Talbot; Juniors — Matt McInnis, Matt Bryant. Girls: Junior — Mackenzie Kelley; Sophomores — Kayla Minkowsk y, Jasmine Cook , Miranda Allen. Key losses: Boys: Elliott Kahl, Patrick Riley; Girls: Devon Ayer, Abby Szotkowski. Promising newcomers: Boys: Sophomores — Tyler Horsford, Brian Nugent; Freshmen — Ben Bailey, Stewart Buzzell, Marques Houston, Dylan Thombs. Girls: Juniors —Tammy Cushman, Brittany Robertson; Freshmen — Amanda Anair, Tiffany Pease.

Coach’s comment: “Playing in the tough WMC, there is never an off night. We need to stay focused each and every night. Playing together as a team will be critical to how successful we are this season. We have good veteran leadership with some young talent that will need to step up when called upon.” — Coach Mike Dehetre

Outlook: Minkowsky was the top runner at the end of last season for the MVC champion girls. Cook also moved into the top four during her freshman year and will be counted on to step up and fill the void left by Ayer and Szotkowski’s graduation. The McInnis brothers and Desmond give the boys a solid 1-2-3 punch. Menendez leads the team alone this year after eight years of co-coaching with Rick Amero, who is now Monmouth’s athletic director.

Promising newcomers: Juniors — Colbey Bowen (FB/MLB), Roman Latno (QB), Jon Greenleaf (TB/S). Outlook: Prideaux, a longtime assistant at Oak Hill and the Patriots’ defensive coordinator last year, inherits a major rebuilding program. Best Of Luck Teams From

The Patriots were gutted by graduation after one of the most successful seasons in the program’s brief history. Paige Leighton Bagdon is the only returning starter, and at 6-foot-4 is a big target. Latno has limited experience at quar terback. Unlike last year, when Valente got the vast majority of the carries, the back f ield of Greenleaf and Bowen will likely split the workload behind a completely rebuilt offensive line. Coach’s comment: “We are, to say the least, building up this year. We’re very young and we have to prove ourselves.” — Coach Phil Prideaux

G-NG GOLF Coach: Don Goodwin (first year) Last year’s record: 4-6 Returning players: Jordan Rouillard, Robbie Morency, Aaron Boulos. Key losses: Cody Edmiston, Tim Pomerleau, Ryan Barton, Lance Nunley. Promising newcomers: Dillon Carll, Brandon Merry, Nick Henneman. Outlook: The team is young, and with a first year coach, the Patriots will likely be in rebuild mode this season. Goodwin is encouraged by the level of talent he’s seen in the newcomers, and Rouillard, a junior, will have to help lead this team. Coach’s comment: “We do have several players who show great promise and will contribute greatly to the team this season.” — Coach Don Goodwin

G-NG GIRLS’ SOCCER Coach: Kiaran McCormack (first year) Last year’s record: 4-10 Re t u rni n g l e t te r w i nn e r s: Seniors — Meghan Dehetre (MF), Alicia Valente (MF), Jess Richards (FB), Lauren Trickey (FB), Sarah Pelkey (FB), Elizabeth Allen (F); Juniors —Maggie Chaplin (MF), Katie Morency (FB), Michaela Despins (FB/MF); Sophomores — Haylee Cote (MF), Amanda Giggey (FB/MF), Sammie Wilkens (G/MF),

Taylor Darnell (F). Key losses: Sasha Bukovskey (FB), Taylor Damon (G), Elizabeth Lobozzo (FB), Morgan Wilson (MF), Mikkayla Mitchell (MF), Nicole Ritter (SK), Abby Ryan (FB), Kassie Wilson (MF). Promising newcomers: Freshman — Julia Martel (MF). Outlook: The Patriots improved from two wins to four last fall and hope to continue that progression. Despite losing nine seniors, GNG has 13 players back and a solid nucleus to build from. Coach’s comment: “The first step is to bring consistency to the girls’ program. The plan for this season is to improve our overall level of play. The focus will be on technical and tactical soccer, with the girls always being encouraged to play fast-paced flowing soccer. I believe that with this, we will become an attractive side to watch and a hard side to beat. We have a chance to surprise some teams and take steps in the right direction towards a playoff bid and then eventually a state title.” — Coach Kiaran McCormack

G-NG CROSS COUNTRY Coach: Adam Zukowski (fourth year) Returning players: Boys: Senior — Ben Schaeffer; Juniors — Randall Stephens, Dylan Fowler, Danny Mar shall, Jeremy H olmquis t, Aaron Grondin; Girls: Senior — Tayla Robbins; Junior — Elizabeth Pflugardt; Sophomore — Paige

Promising newcomers: Boys: Sophomores — David McCann; Elijah Locke, Cam Harmer; Freshman — Wil Shafer; Girls: Junior — Lydia Larson; Sophomores — Jasmine Harper, Katie Hersom; Freshman — Grace Ferguson. Outlook: The Patriots are counting on an infusion of youth to help them compete in the strong Western Maine Conference. Shafer and McCann, a soccer convert, join Schaeffer to form the boys’ top three. The girls have more experience than recent teams, and newcomers Ferguson and Harper should help their depth. Coach’s comment: “We have a solid top three on the boys side, so I’m looking to get two more people in there to step up. We have a lot of girls back for the first time in awhile, so I’m looking forward to seeing how they mature.” — Coach Adam Zukowski

G-NG FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Jennifer Laberge (first year) Last year’s record: 8-8 Returning players: Seniors — Molly Grannall, Ashley Guptil, Breanna Harlow, Meghan Landry, Paige Leighton, Jeanna Lebreque, Leah Rottari, Kellie Sanborn, Taryn Sangillo, Kaitlyn Johnston; Junior — Bethany Ray; Sophomore — Olivia Rottari. Promising newcomers: Jasmine Turner, Emily Marshall. Outlook: With a schedule of nearly all Class C teams a year ago, the Patriots are again going to dip their toes in the Class B waters. With a veteran team and a lot more experience, this year’s team can likely expect some success at that level. Coach’s comment: “This team is much more mature and ready to compete in Class B again.” — Coach Jennifer Laberge

Mountain Valley High School Mtn. Valley BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Jarrod Dumas (fifth year) Last year’s record: 8-5-1 Returning let ter winners: Seniors — Zach Taylor (FB), Eric Billings (FB), David Widger (FB), Ian Sweetser (FB); Juniors — Kyle Gauvin (G), Andrew Child (MF); Sophomores — Nathan Buotte (SK), Garrett Carver (MF), Alex Witas (SK), Austin Glover (MF), Andrew Phelps (SK), Joshua Rainey (MF). Key losses: Dylan Mawhinney (SK), Carl Zurhorst (MF), Jordan Theriault (FB), Travis Gauvin (SK), FRank Parsons (FB), Zach Sweetser (MF), Nicholas Goff (FB), Jamie Hutchins (FB). Promising newcomers: Sophomore — Miles Sullivan (MF); Freshmen — Andrew Boucher (MF), Casey Child (SK), Shawn Bennett (SK), Nathan Fitzpatrick (FB), Michael Theriault (FB). Outlook: The Falcons should be solid defensively with Gauvin back in goal and Taylor, an allconference pick, leading the way in front of the goal. In addition to the experienced upperclassmen, Mountain Valley has a sophomore group and a promising freshman class that should add some spark to a competitive club in the MVC. Coach’s comment: “I’m excited about this team. We had a lot of growth last year, but we’ve put that season behind us. Now, it’s about getting a relatively young team to play proper soccer. We expect to be in most games, and to learn and grow a lot throughout the year. I’m looking forward to it, and I know the guys are too.” — Coach Jarrod Dumas

Mtn. Valley FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Melissa Forbes (13th year) Last year’s record: 7-7 (Lost in Western B quarterfinal) Returning players: Senior — Kym Couch (M); Juniors — Ayla Allen (M), Chelsea Bordeau (M), MaKayla White (B), Sidney Yahn (B), Emily Gallant (G), Sam Glover (F), Rebecca Maifield (F), Whitney Ruff (F); Sophomores —

Peyton Provencher (F), Nicole Burgess (F), Alexa Fowler (B). Key losses: Shawnee Akers, Emily Knapp, McKenzie Kaubrys. Promising newcomers: Junior — Chelsea Gouvin (M); Sophomores — Liz Glover (M), MaKenzie Gallant (F). Outlook: This could be the beginning of a pair of very special years at Mountain Valley. Last year, coming off an MVC championship, the Falcons dipped to ,500 as they acclimated a new set of players to the varsity level. Now, with a large base of juniors, all with playoff experience, and a veteran goalie, this Falcon squad is just about ready for takeoff. Coach’s comment: ”The sophomores and juniors have looked really good, and now we all have a bit more experience. They’re really starting to come into their own.” — Coach Melissa Forbes

Mtn. Valley FOOTBALL Coach: Jim Aylward (22nd year) Last year’s record: 8-3, lost to Cape Elizabeth in Western Class B championship Returning players: Seniors — Cam Kaubris (QB/DB), Christian Durland (TE/DE), Ben Higley (T/DE), Tyler Mason (HB/DB), Josh Allen (RB/LB); Juniors — Izaak Mills (WB/LB/DB), Ryan Glover (T/LB). Key losses: Ryan Laubauskas (G/ DT), Cole Clark (T/LB), Nick Taylor (G/LB), Brady Fergola (FB/DE), Matt Duka (TB/LB), Chris Day (QB/DB). Promising newcomers: Seniors — Taylor Bradley (HB/DB), Taylor Carey (NT). Outlook: The Falcons got within a whisker of their fifth Western Class B title in six years last fall, watching a fourth-quarter lead slip away

against favored Cape Elizabeth. Mountain Valley made that run mostly without Kaubris, who sat out much of the season with a shoulder injury. Bradley is back after starting for Class A Skowhegan, where he transferred just before the start of his junior campaign. Glover and Higley anchor an almost completely rebuilt offensive line. Carey, a wrestler, has been a find in his first football preseason. Mountain Valley will be in the mix with York, Wells and Cape Elizabeth, as always, for regional supremacy.

Livermore Falls High School Livermore Falls BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Bill Acritelli (second year) Last year’s record: 7-6-2, lost in Western C quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors — Tom Bizier (MF), Keith Jewett (MF); Juniors — Jacob Freeman (F), Spencer Osgood (FB), Kyle Sawyer (MF); Sophomores — Jon Neil (F), Pat Ryan (F), Jacob Cole (F), Caleb Berry (MF), Owen Timberlake (FB), Zach Baillargeon (MF). Key losses: Trevor Timberlake (FB), Tom Ventrella (MF), Khyle Whittemore (F), Willie Brown (G), Ian Wilcox (MF), Philip Paradis (FB), James McLamb (MF). Promising newcomers: Seniors — Travis Neil (F), David Newman (FB), Jake Keene (FB), Shane McDonald (FB), Ryan Chretien (FB), Zach Vigue (F), Madison Noll (MF), Amanda Robbins (FB); Juniors — Tyson Newman (F), Ethan Hutchins (G), Stephen Hatch (MF); Sophomores — Henry Seideler (MF), Greg Whitney (F), Shaunna Damboise (MF); Freshmen — Max Moreau (F), Haley Doyen (MF), Mike Paradis (FB), Mike Chavez (FB), Chris Floyd (MF). Outlook: The Andies had so many players turn out this fall that the program has its first JV squad ever. That gives the Andies some depth and helps fuel a fast-paced style Livermore Falls hopes to play. The Andies are gunning for a fifth straight playoff berth and should be a solid club in the MVC despite losing some all-star talent. Coach’s comment: “I am thrill to see so many kids come out for the team this year. With having a JV team, it will help the future of the program. We have a solid team, and if they work hard and keep focused, they should have no problem

Outlook: The Andies only lost a pair of players from the starting lineup, but anyone from the MVC knows just how important those two players were. That said, with a strong nucleus of players on the back end and through the middle, Livermore Falls will again be among the top teams in the MVC. Coach’s comment: ”The girls are anxious to get into the season and play. I am looking for players to share in scoring and lead the Andies into a successful season.” — Coach Julia Parker

and Rose looks like a worthy heir apparent. If either Jones, Lee or Michaud emerges as a second option, LF’s offense should be tough as ever. Easing the transition is an experienced line, anchored by Newcomb, Chabot, Armstrong and Halliday, all of whom will be a factor defensively as well.

St. Dom’s St. Dom’s BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Matt Erickson (fourth year) Last year’s record: 18-0, won Class C state championship. Returning letter winners: Seniors — Dan Curtis (FB), Jackson Erickson (MF), Alex Parker (F), Kyle Hargreaves (FB), Kurt Johnson (MF), Brian Mathieu (FB); Juniors — Cam Hainey (G), Troy Haefele (MF), Austin Gervais (MF), David Dean (MF); Sophomores — Will Desmarais (F), Dakota Keene (F), Bobby St. Hilaire (F). Key losses: Nick Brigham (G), Deryck Beliveau (FB), Josh Charest (MF), Trevar Haefele (MF), Garrett Darnell (MF), Shayne Curtis (FB), Cam Brown (MF), Jameson Peterson (FB). Promising newcomers: Senior — Josh Brown (G); Juniors — Josu Asun (MF), Chris Finlay (FB); Sophomores — Billy Soper (FB), Zack Johnson (MF); Freshman — Chase Hainey (MF). Outlook: The Saints lost key talent from last year’s state championship squad, but have 13 players back, many of whom started and were contributors to that title. Erickson was an all-state pick, while Parker was a consistent threat up front. Hargreaves and Mathieu solidify the defense while Johnson is a veteran in the midfield. St. Dom’s also added Asun, a Spanish transfer who fits nicely with the Saints’ style of play. St. Dom’s should be a contender for another MVC title and be a team to watch in Western C. Coach’s comment: “Collectively, the team had one of its best preseasons, great work ethic, no serious injuries. We’re looking forward to our second year in the MVC.” — Coach Matt Erickson

St. Dom’s FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Brian Kay (12th year) Last year’s record: 1-12 Returning players: Juniors — Jenna Fongemie, Kaitlyn Roy, Molly Finn; Sophomores — Katie Naum, Mina Craig, Alexis Casey.

Outlook: An uncharacteristic down year for the Saints last fall will yield some solid teams for the next few

years with all of the experience St. Dom’s CROSS the younger players gained a year COUNTRY ago. The core of this team is still young, with a bevy of juniors and sophomores among this year’s key players. Coach’s comment: “The Saints should be back to their solid offense and defense of old years.” — Coach Brian Kay Alyse Carney

Outlook: The Falcons went from one win two years ago to five wins and a tourney berth last year. Mountain Valley has a strong experienced club returning that hopes to improve on that success. The Falcons have 15 incoming freshmen and have strong numbers in all classes. The program has been on the upswing the last few seasons, and the Falcons expect to continue that trend. Coach’s comment: “I am very pleased with the efforts, skills and intensity levels that all members of the squad have displayed, and I look forward to the season,” — Coach Kris Tyler

Promising newcomers: Senior — Darren Jodrey; Sophomores — Sean Murphy, Adam Volkernick, Steve Curretin, Milo Jodrey; Freshman — Trenton Virgin. Outlook: Two years removed now from one of the best squads in school history, the Falcons will be in a bit of a rebuild mode this season. One senior with experience returns. The team appears ready to turn to a sophomore, Petrie, as its top golfer. A large sophomore class and a solid incoming freshman will make this team solid again in the future, but the growing pains may catch up to them in this campaign.

Coach’s comment: “Rangeley has many committed returning players that love the game of soccer and continue to strive to get better as individuals and as a team. The new players coming in will offer a greater balance in our positioning, which will be key to our success this season.

Key losses: Stone Walton. Promising newcomers: Junior — Luke Eliott; Freshman — David Batchelder. Outlook: The Lakers keep coming close, and just missing. There is a veteran team here this time around, and while Greenville will again pose a serious threat to win the conference, the Lakers could finally have the team to jump to the top. Daren Decelles appears ready for his role as the team’s leader, and if the top three here stays solid, winning the conference wouldn’t be out of the question.

Promising newcomers: Senior — Anna McGinness (G); Juniors — Erin Luce (FB), Lizzie Carleton (F), Ashley Shurtleff (F); Sophomores — Lyndsay Beane (F), Jenie Rowland (FB); Freshmen — Elise Luce (FB), Allison Lopez (G) Outlook: The Roadrunners lost some veteran defenders including all-state pick Rolbiecki. That leaves Mt. Abram young and inexperienced. Though there are 11 players returning, many will be taking on larger roles while new players have to step in.

The defense should be Anna McGinness strong with London and Matthews leading the way in front of Beedy. The team is relatively young, but most of the squad has some experience that could keep the Roadrunners in the thick of things in the MVC.

Key losses: Kelson Ridley (MF), Cody Violette (FB), Sam Ricker (F), Mason White (F), Chris Warner (FB). Promising newcomers: Senior — Tyler Allen (G); Sophomore — Brandon Morissette (MF). Outlook: The Hornets are trying to rebound after winning just one game in each of the last two seasons. Wright has a small group of returning players and hopes to see this club make progress toward being competitive in the KVAC. Coach’s comment: “The Hornets are optimistic about the new season, looking to play a better brand of soccer under a new head coach. The boys have accepted a new standard of expectation and are taking on the challenge of preparing themselves for the difficult task of improving their record over last year. Improvem ent s in at titude, work ethic, defensive effort and offensive creativity hope to see the team looking back, at the end of October, on the 2010 season with pride and a sense of accomplishment.” — Coach Kris Wright

Key losses: Sarah Durgin, Jen Vallee, Emily Murphy, Kylie Vincent, Lynn Lussenhop, Shelby Poland, Brianna Dionne, Briana Luce.

Outlook: A perennial contender in Class B, the Hornets had an offyear last year — well, for them, anyway. The goal this year is to return to the team’s tytpical topof-the-conference form, and there is a good strong nucleus of players back to help in that endeavor. There is also a very good group of younger players in the mix here. Coach’s comment: “The goal of the team is to improve on last season’s record and go deep into the playoffs.” — Coach Wanda Ward-McLean

Leavitt FOOTBALL Coach: Mike Hathaway (ninth year) Last year’s record: 12-0, Class B champions Returning players: Seniors — Max Cloutier (C/NG), James Morin (T/DT), Jesse Pelletier (G/DT), Zach Frost (G/DE), Jason Fisher (IR/LB), Lucas Witham (SE/S), Christian McBreiarty (TE/CB); Juniors — Jordan Hersom (QB/S), Jake Ouellette (TB/LB). Key losses: Josh Strickland (RB), Eric Theiss (QB), Matt Pellerin (T/ DT), Mat Porter (T/DT), Luke Wiley (G/DT), Cam Griffin (SE/S), Jon Letourneau (IR/CB), Buck Bochtler (TE/DE), Ryan Labbe (SE), Mitch Cobb (G/LB), Nick Urquhart (TE/ LB), Isaiah Wright (IR). Promising newcomers: Seniors

— Devin Long (IR), Dylan Moore (SE/DE), Kurtis Brown (SE/CB), Kevin Theiss (SE); Juniors — Ian Durgin (IR/CB), Jake Posik (T), Jack Griffin (TE/DE); Sophomore — Devin McMahan (T), Josh Bunker (TE). Outlook: 2009 was a dream season for the Hornets, who celebrated their third undefeated Class B championship campaign in the last 15 years. For most schools, following that by bidding farewell to such a talented senior class would be a nightmare. Don’t shed any tears for Leavitt. Hersom, whose last name is a fixture in Maine high school football, would have been the starting QB for most other teams in Class B last year. Witham

Advertising Supplement to the Sun Journal, Lewiston, Maine, Friday, September 3, 2010

is a top-notch receiver. Frost and Pelletier will join holdovers Cloutier and Morin and bring quickness to a retooled of fensive line. Ouellette was the team’s leading tackler a year ago. They’re not the overwhelming favorite of a year ago, but the Hornets are capable of a repeat. Coach’s comment: “I’ve always said you’re the champs until somebody beats you in the playoffs. I’m not going to change my tune now.” — Coach Mike Hathaway

Oak Hill High School Oak Hill BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Chad Drouin (first year) Last year’s record: 11-4, lost in Western B quarterfinal Returning let te r winne rs: Seniors — Ben Daggett (MF), Brian Bradstreet (SW), Sam Hatch (FB), Danny Tucker (FB), Adam Beaulieu (F). Key losses: Adam Soucy (MF), Zach Lennett (MF), Jake Samson (FB), Bryan Soucy (MF). Promising newcomers: Senior — Tyler Pelletier (G); Junior — Jamile Kidd (MF); Sophomore — Dalton Burns (F). Outlook: The Raiders lost one Soucy to graduation and another to transfer. That leaves Oak Hill with just a few returning seniors and limited experience. Kidd is a transfer from Deering, who Drouin says could be one of the best players the program has ever had. Oak Hill will have some growing pains this year but hopes to remain competitive in KVAC B. Coach’s comment: “They’re very knowledgeable about the game. We pass the ball well and control play very well.” — Coach Chad Drouin

Oak Hill FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Betsy Gilbert (seventh year) Last year’s record: 2-11-1 Returning players: Seniors — Ashley Beauparlant (F), Taylor Fillion (FB), Lauren Hall (FB), Sara Lacroix (G), Becca Tucci (MF), Kayla Ridley (FB); Juniors — Miranda Dalessandris (MF), Monica Grass (F); Sophomore — Brianna Hodgkins (W). Key losses: Tori Provencher, Ashley Paradise, Ariel Dalessandris, Emma Grass, Kayla Hodgkins. Promising newcomers: Senior — Megan McGrother (FB); Junior — Katelynn Pellitier (FB/MF); Sophomore — Sandy Wilson (MF/W); Freshmen — Emily Akers (FB/MF), Heather Krook (W). Outlook: The Raiders feel the need to be more offensive-driven with some of the better-skilled players, like Beauparlant, helping to control the game with speed and stick skills. Losing three players off the front line has opened the door for some of the younger players — notably Krook — to step in. Tucci and Dalessandris

should help secure the midfield. The defense is solid, with experience from Hall, Fillion and Ridley, as well as Lacroix in net. Coach’s comment: “We know the talent is there, but it all comes down to the determination and leadership, and game day is when it counts. This team has what it takes to make it to playoffs, and it’s about them pulling together day in and day out as a team that will make it happen.” — Coach Betsy Gilbert

Oak Hill FOOTBALL Coach: Dave Wing (second year) Last year’s record: 4-5, lost to Old Orchard Beach in Western C quarterfinals Returning players: Senior — Josh Allen (TB/DB), Cody Provost (TE/ DE), Rick Newton (DT), Craig Morrill (DB/WR), Nick Wells (LB), Cam Morin (QB/DB). Key losses: Brett Turcotte (QB/DB), Ben Foss (WR/DB), Dillon Tibbetts (WB/DB), Josh Prue (FB/LB), Kyle Emmons (TE/DE). Promising newcomers: Juniors — Cody DePuy (RB/DB), Zach Leeman (LB); Sophomores —Mike Saunders (C), Caleb Provost (DE), Jon Averill (DB), Joel Wells (RB). Outlook: Despite the loss of a splendid senior class, Oak Hill is considered one of the top teams in Western C. One primary reason is Allen, who rushed for nearly 1,000 yards despite missing one full game and part of another due to injury as a junior. Morin, a multi-year starter in basketball, has waited his turn to be the starting QB. Wing expects him to be a good one. How far the Raiders advance into the postseason may hinge on the development of their young offensive and defensive lines. Coach’s comment: ”It looks like a really balanced league, which makes it a lot of fun for everybody.” — Coach Dave Wing

Oak Hill GOLF Coach: Mike Pelletier (sixth season) Last year’s record: 1-9 Returning players: Senior — Will Aronson; Juniors — Josh Martin, Alexis Priest. Key losses: Robert Bradstreet, Ben Leeman, Nate Jillson, Kody Rodgers.

Promising newcomers: Oak Hill BOYS’ SOCCER Juniors — Rick y Ribera, Casey Vachon; Sophomore — Oleg Wing; Freshmen — Connor Keene, Jacob Martin, Dan Woodward. Outlook: With only three returning players, it is hard to know what to expect from Adam Beaulieu the Raiders. With no freshmen a year ago, having three this season provides the team with some positive outlook for the future. Alexis Priest is hoping to return to the state tournament for the third time. Ben Daggett Coach’s comment: ”The season will come down to how the newcomers can handle playing competitive golf.

Outlook: Numbers are down very slightly but still strong, and Williamson says that Leavitt’s running motivation is up. Enos and Lemelin are the top returning

the role as keeper in place of Sabine, an all-state pick in goal. Coach’s comment: “We return a large nucleus of players from last year. So our expectations are high. Last year, we lost a lot of games by only a goal. Our hope is to turn those scores around and get into the playoffs.” — Coach Brant Remington

The boys finished sixth with the girls fifth in the conference a year ago, and the Hornets’ depth gives them a chance to match or surpass that.

Lisbon High School Lisbon BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Dan Sylvester (third year) Last year’s record: 9-6, lost in Western B quarterfinal Returning letter winners: Seniors —Mike Degou (F); Juniors — Morgan Reeves (MF), Justin Grant (SW), Mike Graham (FB); Sophomore — Brady Fenderson (F). Key losses: Marcus Bubar (MF), George Clement (MF), Tyler Dupal (MF), Ethan Audie (G), Ethan Brewer (MF), Phil Carville (MF), Cam Blouin (MF), Steve Obie (F). Promising newcomers: Juniors — Shane Tanguay (G), Ryan Fairbanks (F), Mason Smith (MF), Zach Turner (MF), Joel Osmond (SP), Keenan Grover (FB). Outlook: The Greyhounds lost seven starters from last year, including much of its scoring production with Bubar and Clement. Lisbon also lost its starting goalie and experience in the midfield. There’s some promising players stepping into larger roles, but the team will need some seasoning and stay healthy. Coach’s comment: “We’re young, and we’re small. I don’t think we’re inexperienced. We have a good group that understands the game. We’re going to be growing and have to grind it out with teams.” — Coach Dan Sylvester

Lisbon FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Mark Stevens (18th year) Last year’s record: 6-8 Returning players: MaKayla Stevens, Alicyn Fitzgerald, Meghan Craig, Heather Budesheim, Chrystal Ingerson, Lyndsey Whitney, Bailey Madore, Angel Strout. Key losses: Kelsey Piche. Promising newcomers: Jen Smith, Bailey Cutler, Hanna Jordan, Shayla Pesce, Olivia Harrington, Chelsey Harrington, Haylee Jamison, Nichole Jones, Mariah Breton, Sarah Craig, Sierra O’kane, Luci Charest. Outlook: Lisbon has made the playoffs every year for the past 10 years with the exception of last season, giving the Greyhounds something to prove. With all of the team’s starters returning from except one, Lisbon should benefit

from having experience on all three lines. A deep freshman class will keep the veterans honest. Coach’s comment: “Our girls love the sport, and that is the first requirement to improving performance. We are looking forward to seeing what this group of girls can accomplish this season.” — Coach Mark Stevens

Key losses: Chris Whitney (QB/WR), Joe Doughty (OL/DL), Art Stambach (OL/DL), Scott Eck (RB/DB). Promising newcomers: N/A. Outlook: Done in by injuries last year, the Greyhounds hope to stay healthy and return to their usual spot among the Campbell Conference elite. Caron and the versatile Harrington. who went down last year af ter showing promise, lead a veteran backfield. The interior line, led by Crafts, a fouryear starter on defense and threeyear starter on offense, also has some notches on its belt. If they can get the players on the perimeter on the same page with the rest of the offense, the Greyhounds could gain big chunks of yardage. Coach’s comment: “The defense could be a little bit stronger than the offense at the beginning, while our tackles and ends get in sync.” — Coach Dick Mynahan

Lisbon GIRLS’ SOCCER Coach: Jake Gentle (third year) Last year’s record: 10-4-1, lost in Western B quarterfinals Returning letter winners: Seniors — Shauna Riordan (MF), Ashley Fournier (FB), Kyrstin Ramich (G), Katie McManus (MF), Tara Metzger (F); Juniors — Haley Eck (FB), Brooke Lawrence (MF), Katherine Lemieux

Key losses: Ashley Beaulieu (F), Caity Gamache (MF), Renee Moore (FB), Amber Cloutier (FB). Promising newcomers: Freshmen — Shantal MacWhinnie (MF), Paige Galligan (MF), Jenna Clifford (F). Outlook: The Greyhounds graduated Beaulieu, the school’s all-time leading scorer, and experience on defense in Gamache, Moore and Cloutier. Lisbon still has talent returning. Angelico played well in her first season and has Metzger up front as well. Riordan, McManus, Lemieux and Lawrence make for a solid midfield, while Fournier, Eck and Giraldo return experience on defense in front of Ramich in goal. Lisbon lost some talent, but have plenty back to keep the

Greyhounds strong in the MVC. Coach’s comment: “This year we have 15 returning players. I think we will b e competitive in the MVC and hope to utilize the playoff experience these upper classmen have obtained over the last couple years. The MVC and Western B have many talented teams. With hard work and team play, we hope to have a great season.” — Coach Jake Gentle

Lisbon CROSS COUNTRY Coach: Hank Fuller (23rd year) Returning players: Boys: Senior — Forrest Cornell; Juniors — Kody Priddle, Kyle Priddle, Hayden Stewart; Sophomore — Ben Kates.

Juniors — Garrett Starr, Joe Daigle; Sophomore — Ethan Knowles; Freshmen — Tyler Bard, Nick McNamara. Girls: Sophomores — Kristen Carter, Jordan Kates; Freshmen — Abigail Roy, Kaitlynn Morse, Sam Foote. Outlook: Thomas finished third in the state and second in the M o unt ain Vall ey Co nf e re n ce as a sophomore. She will lead a girls’ team dominated by young, promising athletes. Stewart was an all-MVC performer on the boys’ side, while Cornell, a championship wrestler, is a tireless leader by example for the Greyhounds. Coach’s comment: “ The girls are not terribly experienced, but they’re woking hard and have a great attitude. The boys probably will have a pretty good pack.” — Coach Hank Fuller

Winthrop High School Winthrop BOYS’ SOCCER Coach: Greg Ruby (fourth year) Last year’s record: 1-12-1 Returning letter winners: Seniors — Evan Arbour (MF/F), Ryan Valle (MF/F), Reilly Fitzgerald (F/MF), Alex Tellow (F), Ryan Tozer (FB), Richard Van Twister (SW), Conner Chu (FB); Juniors — Conner Doyle (MF/F), Cameron MacMillan (G/F), Mitch Guerette (F), Will Frost (SW), Devin Kauffman (FB/G); Sophomores — Justin Lapointe (SK), Peter Michelson (FB), Tom Pietroski (F/FB). Key losses: Pat Raph (FB), Dylan Craig (FB), Justin White (SK), Cody Maitland (G/F), Adam St. Pierre (FB/G), Ryan Valle (SK), Caleb Nichols (FB), Jake Nason (FB) Promising newcomers: Senior — Josh Lapointe; Freshmen — Ben Hall (FB), Alex Chamberlain (FB), Jake Valle (F), Nate Colby (F/FB), Ethan Squires (FB). Outlook: The Ramblers have just two wins total in the last two seasons, but with eight seniors back and 15 back overall, Winthrop could be a much more competitive presence in the MVC this fall. Ruby says this is the most experienced club he’s had at Winthrop. Coach’s comment: “The seniors this season are driven, focused and determined. Coming into my fourth season as head coach for the Ramblers, this is by far the most prepared and determined bunch of kids I’ve had the privilege of coaching. I hope they have the success they deserve after all the hard work they have put in so far.” — Coach Greg Ruby

Winthrop FIELD HOCKEY Coach: Sharon Coulton (29th season) Last year’s record: 13-1 (MVC champs , l os t in E as ter n C quarterfinal) Returning players: Seniors — Nikki Scott (F), Sarah Warner (M); Junior — Paige Wood (D); Sophomores — Mar y Claire Blanchard (F), Shauna Carlson (M), Quahnah Cummings (D), Lauren

Kaiser (F), Erica Ouellette (F), Jessica Scott (D). Key losses: Kelsey Ouellette, Kenzie Hill, Lauren McHatten, Katie Michelsen, Kayla Kaiser, Bailey Hannum, Ashley Barter. Promising newcomers: Senior — Sasha Flaherty (M);’ Junior — Nikki Burgess (HB); Sophomore — Lorin Bryant (G); Freshman — Alyssa Arsenault (G). Outlook: The Ramblers were, along with Telstar last season, the class of the MVC. They lost a lot of firepower up front and some solid defenders, so this year may see a small step back for Winthrop as it begins its conference title defense. But the step will, indeed, be small, with a wealth of younger players ready to step into roles as varsity players. Coach’s comment: ”Based on strong performances during the summer, we are optimistic about the season. We have holes to fill, but our newcomers are fitting in well.” — Coach Sharon Coulton

Winthrop FOOTBALL Coach: Joel Stoneton (seventh year) Last year’s record: 6-4, lost to Dirigo in Western Class C semifinals Returning players: Seniors — Chris Halligan (G), Ryan Castonguay ( T/DE), Travis S h e r m a n (G / D E ), H u n t e r Sherman (TE/ILB), Joey Brennan (WR/CB), Colby Laflamme (WR/ CB), Travis Luce (QB), Travis Hutchins (FB/OLB), Ryan Conant (TB/OLB), Zach Barter (DT), Eric Duplessis (FB/ILB); Juniors — Chris Bowers (C), Robin Cook (DT). Key losses: Corey Staples (TE/DE), Cory Harris (TB), Dane Gomberg (DT), Tyler Arsenault (WR/CB). Promising newcomers: Senior —Derek Pamphrey (TB); Junior — Tyler Reeves (T). Outlook: For the second time in three years, Winthrop opens the season as the favorite in Western C. The Ramblers won the regional title in 2008 and made it to the semfinals with a junior-dominated team last year. All but three of the 22 starting spots are occupied by seniors. Winthrop has a strong two-

Outlook: The Ramblers have much of last year’s club back and have a large group of new players to add to the mix. Fortin says his club could be in the middle of the pack in the MVC and battling for a tourney spot. Coach’s comment: “We’re going to try to make the playoffs. We’ve gone to the playoffs in nine out of the 10 years in existence, and we hope to be able to do it again.” — Coach Marc Fortin

Promising newcomers: Boys: Senior — Adam St. Pierre; Freshmen — Tom Quimby, Alex Hayes. Girls: Freshmen — Randi Bennett, Molly Kieltyka. Outlook: Souza was a top-20 runner in Class C last year and will

be counted on to lead the boys. Kilgore and Hachey also are coming off solid freshman seasons. Doyle, also a track and field standout, was third in the MVC girls’ meet last season. Lindsey is a fouryear contributor. If the Ramblers can avoid injuries, they will have enough runners to compete for the team title on both sides at the conference meet for the first time in recent memory. Coach’s comment: “Anna (Doyle) qualified for states last year and Molly (Lindsey) missed by one spot. I expect better things for both of them.” — Coach Jay Lindsey

Coach’s comment: “We’re setting the standards high for this year, and I think this team can be better than we were last year.”

Oxford FOOTBALL Coach: Nate Danforth (third year) Last year’s record: 1-7 Returning players: Seniors — Chris Priest (TE/SS), Matt Farnum (TE/FS), Danny Taylor (FL/CB), Andy Ripley (TB/CB). Key losses: Nate Dubois (RB/DB), Jake Hall (RB/SS), Matt Verrier (QB), Eli Dolloff (Slot/DE), Jake Allen (G/NT). Promising newcomers: Seniors — Zack Moore (FB), Jon Flanders (TB/DE); Junior — Logan Sanborn (QB/CB); Sophomore — Jordan Croteau (FB/ILB). O u t l o o k : T h e V ik in gs are switching to the I-formation this season in hopes of creating more of a smashmouth style of offense to match their physical defense, but they will need someone to emerge in the unsettled tailback spot. Moore, a 290 -pound converted lineman, could split time at fullback with Croteau if he is conditioned enough. Sanborn will also run from the QB spot. Former head coach Bob Austin is back coaching the young offensive line. Coach’s comment: “We’ve got some size, but we’re inexperienced. Our goal is to make the playoffs.” — Coach Nate Danforth

(F), Brooke Murch (MF), Crystal West (MF). Outlook: The Vikings have 12 returning players and add 11 newcomers, including eight freshmen and sophomores. Oxford Hills should be solid on defense and could get better as the season goes on and new players adjust to roles. Coach’s comment: “Our team has a good core of returning varsity. Our veteran players will help anchor our midfield and defense. Our goal is to be successful to the best of our ability and improve every game. We have some great young talent that will play a very important role in our season.” — Coach Cortney Sirois

Key losses: Boys: Justin St. John; Girls: Sorrel Dunn, Abby Korn, Brittany Turner Promising newcomers: Boys: Senior — Alex Hardy; Sophomores — Matthew Breer, Kane Williamson; Girls: Freshman — Alexandria Jones, Kelsie Robichaud. Outlook: The Vikings lost what could have been one of the top runners in Class A to early graduation in Dunn. That makes this even more of a building year at Oxford Hills. Newcombe, who was competitive in some smaller meets last year, is the top boys’ runner. Roy expects Lee to be No. 1 for the girls. Coach’s comment: “It’s a very tight team. It might not be the fastest group of kids but it’s going to be a fun group this year.” — Coach Luc Roy

Promising newcomers: Seniors — Travis Willis (FB), Nick Harlow (MF), Joel Cloutier (FB); Junior — Garret Carver (MF); Sophomores —Trevor Newman (FB), Chad Snowman (F); Freshman — Bryan Volkernick (F). Outlook: The Cougars lost many veterans from a team that went unbeaten in the regular season and lost in the MVC title game. That included all-state players Gates and Bolduc. With some new talent and a new coach, the Cougars will go through some growing pains, but hope to competitive in the MVC. Coach’s comment: “ We lost some key players due to graduation, but we have some younger players ready to step up. If we keep working hard and improving like we have been, then we should do pretty well this season. It’s all going to start with our defense. If we can be solid in back, then we should be in every game.” — Coach Jack Rioux

Outlook: Dirigo won its first football championship since the 1970s in resounding fashion, winning every game by at least two touchdowns. Crutchfield was a finalist for the Fitzpatrick Trophy. But it’s a new year, and 22 of the 33 players on Dirigo’s 2010 roster are freshmen

or sophomores. Ross remains one of the most electrifying players in the state. Expect him to log a lion’s share of the carries without Blackman, who is out indefinitely with an Achilles injury. Holmes was impressive during the summer 7-on-7 season. Fenstermacher and Dowland are standouts on both sides of the ball. There’s enough talent remaining for the Cougars to make a late-season run if the youngsters continue to develop. Coach’s comment: “We’ll surprise some people. We have a lot of speed.” — Coach Doug Gilbert

Promising newcomers: Juniors — Nick White, Austin Blodgett. Outlook: Dirigo was down in the standings last season, but the full year’s worth of experience for all of the players returning to play this season will no doubt help. Conant has been the top golfer for a while now, and he’ll again lead the squad. The Cougars could make the quick leap to contender this year. In scrimmages, the team is already nearly 30 strokes better than last season. Coach’s comment: “I’d like to see them play for the MVC title this year. I think we have the team to give it a run.” — Coach Seth Fournier

Coach: Erin Leathers (fourth year) Last year’s record: 6-8 (Lost in Western Class C quarterfinal) Returning players: Seniors — Hannah Knight (F), Colette McKeen (F), Meri Brown (M), Brooke Kersey (FB), Brittany Young (G); Juniors — Alyssa Charity (M), Sam Blanchette (F); Sophomores — Dani Ranger (M), Cassidy Bigos (F). Key losses: Katrina Pulk, Morgan Hutchins, Amber Woods, Jordan Holmes. Promising newcomers: Senior — Kayla Brown; Juniors — Betsy Noyes (G), Meghan Jordan (M); Sophomore — Kate Bonney (F); Freshmen — Rylee I’Itilien (FB), Brooke Holmquist (F). Outlook: The returning players outweigh the losses this season, and this fall could be a special one for the Cougars. Tri-captains Knight, McKeen and Brown will bring experience and leadership up the middle and out front, and if the group of newcomers can plug the holes on defense in front of Young and Noyes, the MVC may well have yet another contender. Coach’s comment: “We are excited for this year. We have a lot of returning varsity players, and many of the girls have been playing together for three to four years.” — Coach Erin Leathers

Coach: Art Chamberlin (17th year) Last year’s record: 7-8, lost in Western C quarterfinals Returning letter winners: Juniors — Larissa Bryant (F), Alyssa Wade (MF), Paige Murphy (F), Miranda Shurtleff (MF), Myriah Porter (FB), Mariah Larsen (FB), Erin Turner (MF); Sophomores — Michelle Morrison (F), Natalie Bolduc (F), Ambyr Wilson (SP), Gretchen Bradbury (MF), Natasha Deroche (G), Kayla Gaudin (FB). Key losses: Lindsey Brann (MF), Cassie Moretto (F), Jane Hebert (MF/G), Emily Chase (SK), Emily Luce (FB), Kirstin Blood (FB), Kelly Gould (F). Promising newcomers: Sophomores —Addy Fuller (F), Samantha Morse (FB), Silvia Lutick (F); Freshmen — Lindsy Crutchfield (MF), Bryce Parent (FB). Outlook: The Cougars were hit hard by graduation, losing seven players and five starters. Dirigo then lost Larsen and Turner to injuries suffered in a car accident, which could put both out for the season. There are still 11 returning players, but only five are upperclassmen. Coach’s comment: “There is a good group of juniors and sophomores with some varsity experience. How quickly they can fill the void left by graduation of seven seniors and the two girls injured in the car accident will be critical to our success. We hope to improve our team play with every game. “ — Coach Art Chamberlin

Dirigo GOLF Coach: Seth Fournier (third year) Last year’s record: 2-8 Returning players: Seniors — Justin Conant, Justin Richards; Junior — Mitch Stanley; Sophomores — Robbie Babb, Justin Chartier. Key losses: None.
