In 2006 the Whitcomb Lady Hornets went all the way to the championship game and ended up second after they lost to the Black River Presidents. Third-year coach Gary Zisselsberger hopes they can get back there, but they are lacking a truly experienced goalie with the loss of Maggie Eddy. Whitcomb lost their top scorer from last year in his daughter, Tracy Zisselsberger, and Chelsie Brown, Maya Robinson and foreign exchange student Kerstin Kraeutlein are also gone, due to graduation. Unfortunately, the Lady Hornets also are without senior "worker-bee" Demi Aldrighetti, who is still recovering from ACL surgery and three-year player junior Killian White who is a foreign exchange student this year studying in India. That leaves only nine returnees: seniors Laurel Adams, Tia McKenna, Molly Taylor and Emily Wright and sophomores Mikayla Dieffenbach, Emily Durfee, Meredith Kill, Allison Richards and Virginia Wortman. Adams will step in to tend the nets full-time, with Wright a very capable replacement if need be, when not anchoring the fullback position along with McKenna and Richards. Thompson will join them. Taylor, the top Hornet scorer last year, leads the forward march with Durfee and Kill alongside her. Dieffenbach and Wortman will be joined by Merksbauerova at the halfback position. Connolly will switch it up, playing both fullback and half back positions. Freshmen Jenna Connolly and Lacie Thompson join the team, along with senior foreign exchange student from Prague, Aneta Merksbauerova. Aldrighetti will be the team manager along with exchange student Caro Gonzalez from Ecuador. ____________ |
