I hope the incoming players are FAST -- our speed deficit was painfully obvious in the college cup.
But a really really successful season, finishing second in the nation is a major feat, especially in soccer. Congrats to the entire team, coaches and staff!

Defender Gisele Thompson is fast, not exactly as fast as her sister, but world class fast (Gisele ran 100 in 11.87 seconds last year; Alyssa has run it in 11.74). Thompson would be an upgrade from Wesley speed wise if she doesn't go pro (committed to Stanford but still hasn't signed her LOI yet).  So fingers crossed there.  

Also, I like this quote from our GK Ryan Campbell tonight.  (Would seem to suggest she is coming back for her COVID season. Despite the result tonight, she's an incredible keeper.)
 
“It’s not something my coach or my teammates are happy about,” Campbell said. “But we will come out hungry next year. I know these girls are fighters and we’re going to make a statement from game one next August.”
