Midfielder Emma Klein is back after missing almost two full seasons with injury. Midfielder Ashley Rauch has 53 career starts for the Orange and 22 points (9 goals) and served as one of the captains last season. Goalie Shea Vanderbosch has made 49 career starts with 8 shutouts. They will be looking to lead the Orange to a better season in 2025.
Syracuse will travel to Colgate on Wednesday for an exhibition match before finishing the pre-season at home against LeMoyne on Sunday. The regular season kicks off a week from Thursday at home against Charleston Southern.
The Syracuse men will play pre-season home games against Marist on Saturday and Mercyhurst next Tuesday.
