We graduated 7 seniors and 1 player left the team prior to the 2018 season.

11 players joined the Tribe in 2018 and that doesn't include freshmen. Including true freshmen, that's 18 players who had zero experience at W&M. 18 of a 30 player roster who had not stepped foot on College grounds before August.

Of the 12 current players who were on the 2017 roster, only 6 saw significant time last year. Only two of them, Dailey and Segan, received CAA honors last year.

Yes, losing 7 seniors is a lot - but of the 11 transfers, how many did Shackford bring in? How many of 7 freshmen did she recruit? In other words, it sounds like she had a significant say in who was on the roster (and she absolutely had ALL the say in the style of play all year).

I think that 2 returning players with CAA honors is a lot. How many did Drexel or Delaware or UNCW (the teams finishing right in front of us, two of whom beat us out of the last spots) have?

Bottom line is that I think that we can all agree that the team did not play well this year and that is on both the players and coaches. But Shackford did not start from ground zero. Hopefully next year will be better.

I doubt we had 11 transfers. It has been a disappointing year, but Shackford is a proven coach. The team should be better next year.

RE: Women's Soccer
I don't have the specifics, but women's soccer is very different that hoops or football. Most elite players are recruited from their club teams during their 14, 15 and 16 year old seasons (many playing up in age group). Other than girls that she was able to get in here last spring, the roster was all from Daley. Most, if not all scholarship money was already gone at that point. She's recruiting for girls who will be here in 2020 and 2021 now and hopes to find some late bloomers for next season's freshman class.
