WORDS FROM THE WARHAWKS
"It was a tough end to the season," said head coach
Julianne Herrity. "I am really proud of this senior class. It may not feel like it right now for them, but they have made a lasting impact on the program. Some of them were even here through the NCAA Division II transition. They have a lot to be proud of and AUM women's soccer is in a better place because of them."
