Season notes: Bryn Bissey tied a team record with 76 games played during her college career … The win against Swarthmore College on October 26 clinched a program-first fifth straight appearance in the Centennial Conference tournament … The senior class -- comprised of Bissey, Megan Holt and Megan Reilly -- registered its fourth double-digit win total in four years, the first graduating class in program history to achieve that mark. The quartet also recorded a program-record 50 victories over those four years … Four of the Fords' eight losses on the season were to teams that were nationally ranked at the time.
Looking ahead:
Rising seniors Jen DiMaria and Catherine Aronowitz lead a veteran group of returnees as the Fords aim to continue their streak of Centennial tournament appearances in 2014. DiMaria topped the team in scoring in 2013 with 11 goals and five assists while Aronowitz finished fourth on the squad in scoring with 20 points (seven goals, six assists). Haverford will also benefit from the experience gained by goalie Lindsey Lopes who started 19 of the Fords' 20 contests this season.
