Not surprisingly, LU is the pick for 1st. They were 10-6 last year and return four starters. The voters showed a lot of respect for the Bucknell program, placing the Bison 3rd despite having only one returning starter and almost no height. Taylor O'Brien made the All-PL team and was 2nd in the POY vote.

In response to Bison137
Went to the Breakfast with the Bison open practice this morning. We certainly are young, maybe the youngest team in the league, with only two seniors and one starter back. However, Walls looks to be all the way back, and she’s started before, Krsul is tough and experienced, and the freshmen look like they’ll be ready to contribute by the time the PL season starts. There are a couple really good teams in the league, but I think we’ll be a tough out. The preseason #3 ranking seems fair.
