Head Coach Bill O'Neill said, "I am so excited about the future of the women's soccer program with this year's recruiting class. After a historical season that put our program into the NCAA tournament and winning the colleges first ever NCAA conference championship, interest grew to be a part of our program. The recruiting class includes several transfers, players with team and individual accolades and even expanded into Maryland. This will be one of our largest classes coming into the program. But expectations are very high for our team and we will need to come together very quickly to pick up where we left off. The most important thing will be how our veterans and our new players will mix, to be able to leave history behind and making winning the standard."
