Head coach Megan Eddinger and associate head coach Teresa Mathews have announced the addition of eight student-athletes to the Muhlenberg field hockey program for the 2026-27 campaign.
"We are thrilled to welcome eight outstanding student-athletes to the Muhlenberg field hockey family," Eddinger said of the class. "This talented group will complement our returning players and strengthen an already dedicated and competitive team. We look forward to welcoming them to campus in August and supporting their growth over the next four years both on the field and in the classroom. We are excited to be a part of their journey as they develop as athletes, students, and leaders. Our coaching staff can't wait to see what the 2026 season brings, and we are eager to begin this next chapter together."
The group features one transfer (Jocelyn Morgan) and seven members of the Class of 2030. Positionally, it is a well-rounded class, with three forwards, three midfielders, one back, and one goalkeeper.
They will be looking to fill some rather large shoes left behind by the 2026 graduating class, especially those of Abba Diglio and Erin DiSandro. That duo departs after leading the team in scoring last season by a fair margin, and ranks among the top 10 in nearly every career-long offensive category. Not to be lost in the mix are Lily Botta, Greta Marchildon, and Molly Woodward, who combined to play in 52 of 54 total games last season.
