Good Point on 2025-26 Roster Construction

Want to avoid anything close to the 20219-20 "fall off the cliff"-esque situation the marked MM's last season.

Even though Hannah Hidalgo & Kate Koval, along with Cass Prosper, KK Bransford and Emma Risch -- plus Kylee Watson? -- all should be coming back, there will be holes to fill with Maddy Westbeld and Soni Citron moving on (and Olivia Miles possibly doing the same, even though she'll have a medical year.)

It's one reason why I think Niele shouldn't discount viable freshmen or sophomores in the portal if they can add perceivable value for multiple years (See T. Gardiner, M. Douda, MA Stevenson as examples). And, of course, work on those Class of 2025ers...hard. There won't be as many grad transfers available next year due to the expiration of the Covid exemption.
