Standout Players:
Despite the significant player exits, Coach Elba remains optimistic, highlighting a number of players who are expected to make a remarkable impact this season. These include four-year varsity Senior Center Mid, Andrew Szamreta, Senior Outside Back, Danny Delghaccio, and Biagio Schiano-Dicola, who is returning from injury.
