Division 1 Women’s Preview: Top players to watch and team capsules

By Mike ZheFebruary 1, 2018

Boston University sophomore Kailey Conry.

Hartford
2017 result: N/A

Coach: Meg Decker (first year)

Key losses: None

Players to watch: Billy McLaughlin, jr.; Lauren Whener, fr.; Megan Miller, fr.

Outlook: Much like UMass Lowell when it debuted in America East in 2015 (and went 0-17 overall), the 21-player roster for Hartford is comprised almost entirely of freshmen, with just two seniors and one junior. … Wehner was named a high school All-American in Ohio, and Miller graduated from Ballston Spa (N.Y.) High School as that program’s all-time leading scorer. … Decker was hired in August 2016 to build the program from scratch after playing at Navy and assisting at Virginia Commonwealth. "This is a year of firsts,” she said. “Anytime you do something for the first time, (it) presents challenges and opportunities. Each game of this season presents an opportunity.". … The Hawks will play a 13-game schedule. The first game is Feb. 24 against Delaware State as part of a men’s/women’s doubleheader.
