First, seniors Sue St. Louis, Gia Johnson, Sara Fischer, Wendy Sonnabend and Kerry Bryan were lost to graduation. Three four-year starters and two super subs, gone. Visiting student Laurie Gregg, after a spectacular one-year stay, left for the soccer fields of the University of North Carolina. Gone. Senior-to-be Sue Rockwell, the team's best pure defensive player; Joan Elliott, the top freshman scorer of last season; and Ann Diamond, the starting goalkeeper as a freshman for much of last year, all decided to take 1981 off.

This year the woe may be real with 33 lettermen gone, including almost every starter. Still, you can't tell me there isn't enough left to beat Penn, a team that topped only Columbia a year ago.
