They’ve made three straight postseason appearances, earned a pair of NCAA Championship Tournament berths, raised two California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) North Division banners, and last season raised the program’s first-ever CCAA Championship banner. Now their job is to help raise even more banners for the program, while also help- ing to raise the 18 new players joining the program for the 2008 season. Eighth-year head coach Kim Sutton, who last season earned CCAA Coach of the Year honors for the second time in four years, believes the incoming class has a future at least as bright as her five talented seniors. “The talent just keeps getting better every year,” said Sutton. “We’re turning kids away in the recruiting process that we would have been thrilled to have two or three years ago. The talent level seems to improve with each incoming class.” As a result, only the most talented of Sutton’s prior recruiting classes have persevered. That talent will be crucial to this team’s success, along with the leadership and experience they provide. “We have a solid group of returners who have given at least four years to our program and their leadership has been outstanding,” said Sutton. “Katie McIntosh and Angie Goulding give us leadership in the back. Abby Stretch and Stephanie Insler will bring that to the middle of the field. Melissa Lindsay provides the leader- ship for our forwards.
