2016 WOMEN’S LACROSSE • 11 2016 OUTLOOK

he Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse team won 11 games in 2015, claiming the Colonial Athletic Association regular season Ttitle and earning a fourth consecutive appearance in the CAA Championship. Senior Brittain Altomare was a third team All-America selection and CAA Player of the Year, while classmate April Iannetta was a CAA first team selection for the third consecutive season. Five other players earned All-CAA accolades and Coach Shannon Smith was the CAA Coach of the Year.

Smith, who is entering her fourth year as coach of the Pride, will be the first to tell you that while the wins and accolades are great, they are in the past. Looking ahead to the 2016 season, in which the Pride was picked fourth in the CAA Preseason Poll, Smith will look to replicate past success but will have to do so without many of the stalwarts of the recent Hofstra teams.

Replacing Altomare, Hofstra’s all-time leader in points, assists and draw controls, and Iannetta, a two-time CAA Defensive Player of the Year, as well Kelsey Gregerson, a three-year starter in goal, and starters MORGAN Sam Lenox and Abby Wilson, will be difficult but not impossible. KNOX

Coach Smith has six starters returning from last season as well as 11 other players who saw game action. Coupled with a highly touted recruiting class that includes North Carolina transfer Lindsay Scott, the Pride should be able to fill some of the void left by graduation.

Here is a position-by-position look at the 2016 Pride: ATTACK Scott joins the Pride as a graduate student after tallying 17 goals and five assists during her tenure with the Tar Heels. An All-American out of Yorktown High School, Coach Smith sees Scott as an offensive catalyst for the team in 2016. She will be joined up front by junior Preseason All-CAA selection Tiana Parrella, who enjoyed a breakout season of her own in 2015 by posting 23 goals and 11 assists en route to second team All-CAA accolades. The team’s leading returning scorer, Parrella ranked second to Altomare in goals and assists last season. Junior Morgan Knox, who started five of 17 games and was third on the team in scoring with 21 goals and 11 assists, should be in line for an expanded role on the attack in 2016.

Freshmen McKenna Orozco, who scored 24 goals and added 49 assists as a senior at Spalding Academy in Severn, Maryland, and Lexi Lenaghan, who tallied 69 goals, 46 assists and 77 draw controls as a senior at Notre Dame Academy in Hingham, Massachusetts, have impressed the Pride coaches thus far and should be in the mix for playing time. Sophomores Samantha Torrico and Jessica Geiersbach will also look to crack the rotation at attack in their second year with the program. Torrico played in one game last season, while Geiersbach TIANA did not see any game action after suffering a knee injury during the PARRELLA preseason.

The attacking midfield will feature four underclassmen in sophomore Zoe Gomez and freshmen Tessa Sinatro, Jenna Budd and Sarah Tappan. Gomez, a high school All-American, had three goals and an assist in seven games as a freshman. Sinatro was an honorable mention All-American as a senior at Conard High School in West Hartford, Connecticut, while Tappan earned Under Armour All-America accolades after scoring 91 goals as a senior at Cape Henlopen High School in Lewes, Delaware. Budd was a five-year letterwinner at East Hampton High School on Long Island.

CAROLYN CARRERA

MIDFIELD The Hofstra midfield features six returning players, making it the most experienced unit on the field. The segment is anchored by senior co- captain Lindsey Alfano, and also features classmate Becky Conto as well as sophomore starters Amanda Seekamp and Carolyn Carrera. Fellow sophomores Carlee Ancona and Drew Shapiro saw valuable minutes as freshmen and all six student-athletes will play extensively this season.

Alfano, an All-CAA second team selection in 2015 after recording 17 goals, three assists, 14 ground balls, 13 draw controls and 13 caused turnovers, was an Honorable Mention Preseason All-CAA selection heading into the 2016 campaign. Conto posted nine goals and four assists in 15 games last season after returning from an injury-shortened 2014 campaign. The CAA Rookie of the Year in 2013, Conto has proven that she can be an all-around contributor for the Pride.

Seekamp played in all 17 games with 16 starts as a freshman and recorded 15 goals and four assists for 19 points. She ranked fifth on the team in goals and tied for fifth in points, and posted a four-goal performance against top-ranked Maryland. Carrera played more of a defensive-minded role for the Pride as a freshman, tallying 14 ground balls, 11 draw controls and eight caused turnovers in 17 starts. After scoring 173 goals during her scholastic career, taking on an offensive role should not be much of an issue for Carrera.

Ancona played in nine games as a freshman with five starts and had BECKY three goals and one assist for four points to go along with seven CONTO ground balls, five caused turnovers and four draw controls. Shapiro had three goals and three assists in 13 games (one start) as a freshman.

2016 WOMEN’S LACROSSE • 13 2016 OUTLOOK

The defensive midfield will be held down my sophomore Elena Schorr and freshman Jenna Baverman. Schorr played in 10 games as a freshman with one start and had one draw control. Baverman serves as team captain of the U19 Israeli National Team and led Israel with six goals, seven assists, 21 ground balls, 17 caused turnovers and 15 draw controls in seven games at the 2015 World Cup in Scotland. During her final two seasons at Roland Park Country School in Baltimore, Maryland, Baverman recorded 55 caused turnovers and 97 ground balls. DEFENSE Senior co-captain and Preseason All-CAA selection Shelby Milne leads a six-player defensive unit that features returnees Audrey Byrd, Shea McAvoy and Grayson Corbett as well as freshmen Rachel Gregory and Annalise Martin.

Milne was a second team All-CAA selection in 2015 after tallying one goal, 22 ground balls, 16 caused turnovers and two draw controls on the season. She ranked second on the team in caused turnovers and third in ground balls. Byrd, a redshirt junior, was a CAA All-Rookie Team choice in 2015 after posting 18 ground balls, two draw controls and two caused turnovers in 14 games. LINDSEY McAvoy slides into a defensive role after picking up a goal, 11 ground ALFANO balls, two draw controls and four caused turnovers at midfield during her freshman campaign. Corbett posted three ground balls, two caused turnovers and one draw control in nine games as a freshman in 2015.

Gregory and Martin both enjoyed solid scholastic careers at their respective high schools on Long Island. Gregory was a two-time all- division performer at Babylon High School, while Martin was an All- Suffolk County and all-division pick out of Bayport-Blue Point High School. GOALKEEPER After three years of Gregerson between the pipes, the Pride will have a new net-minder in 2016. Junior Alexis Greene is the front-runner, but she will be pushed by freshmen Maddie Fields and Sara Guarascio.

Greene has seen less than 12 minutes of action during her two seasons, though her experience in the program should help her transition SHELBY MILNE into the starters role. Fields played scholastically at Mount de Sales Academy in Catonsville, Maryland, while Guarascio was the 2015 Defensive Most Valuable Player at St. John the Baptist High School in West Islip, New York. SCHEDULE Another strong schedule has been put together by Coach Smith as it features six games against teams that qualified for the NCAA Tournament in 2015 and seven games against schools that won 10 or more contests a season ago. Hofstra will make a trip to College Park, Maryland, to face the defending National Champion Maryland Terrapins on March 5 to highlight the schedule.

“We are looking forward to the upcoming season,” commented Smith. “Coming off such a successful season in 2015 we are excited about the opportunities that the 2016 schedule will present for our team. This schedule offers us many challenges that will help our team grow and we know that this slate will assist us in continually moving the Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse program forward.”

riginally opened in 1963 as Hofstra Stadium and renamed OJames M. Shuart Stadium in August 2002, the facility serves as the home to Hofstra’s lacrosse teams.

Named after the former Hofstra President, who played lacrosse and football during his undergraduate days at Hofstra, James M. Shuart Stadium has served as the host for the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship Quarterfinals and first round games in the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse Championships, numerous conference championship contests, the Long Island All-Star Football Game, the Fun City Bowl featuring the New York City Police and Fire Department teams, the Empire Challenge Football Game between Long Island and New York City, and various Long Island high school and New York state championship games.

In 1968 the stadium became the third college facility in the nation to install an artificial playing surface. James M. Shuart Stadium underwent a major renovation and expansion that was completed in the fall of 1996, making the facility into one of the premier complexes in the Northeast. The project included the expansion of the seating capacity from 7,000 to 13,000; the creation of the Howdy Myers Pavilion in the southeast corner of the stadium; and the installation of scoreboards in both end zones.
