The squad's top scoring threats come in senior Sandy Bryan (29 goals, 10 assists) and junior Roseanne Byron (24 goals, six assists) Add to that the continuing impressive play of freshmen Allison Barlow and Nina McDowell and the sharp goaltending of Fran O'Donoghue and you've got a squad at the top of its game...
