2018 Accomplishments:Â MAPL & Prep A Runner-Up
2018 Notables: Historic season in 2018- program-best record and most goals scored- outshot opponents 80-18, recorded 11 shutouts
2019 Outlook: The Bucs return 15 out of 19 players from 2018 and graduate only two starters: midfielder Abby Kreider (Second Team All-Region, American U commit) and defender Karenna Benanti (All-Prep A, Skidmore lacrosse commit). Kate Antonelli (2020) and Jess Pasquali (2021) return as All-Prep A selections. New talent and a cohesive rising senior class of 7 should keep the Bucs highly competitive in the MAPL and among the NJISAA prep schools.
