The 2016 season saw the last of several big name players – Taylor Cummings (Maryland), Kaylin Morissette (Louisville), Barbara Sullivan (Notre Dame) and Kayla Treanor (Syracuse), just to name a few.
How will these teams, among others, survive without the key young women who became the face of their respective programs over the past four years? Will teams be rebuilding or reloading? Can a new team be thrown into the mix, where experience trumps youth?
Only time will tell, but here's a way early look at a potential Top 20 for 2017, looking at the number of starters lost, if that number includes their goalie, and the percentage of points losts. This analysis excludes talk of incoming freshmen classes.
6. Syracuse
Number of Starters Lost: 8
Starting Goalie Graduate? Yes.
Percentage of Point Production Lost: 55.18%
On the opposite end of the spectrum is Syracuse, who loses more than half of their starting lineup to graduation, including leading scorer and draw specialist Kayla Treanor, as well as Maryland transfer Halle Majorana. How will Syracuse reload a team that already lost six games in 2016?
