The Clinton Warriors enter there 5^th year of varsity competition under new head coach Alan Edkins. Coach Edkins returns to his alma mater to lead a very talented senior laden Warrior team.   Senior goalie and tri-captain Sam Hecklau, a four year starter will anchor a veteran defense that will be the cornerstone of the program. Fellow seniors Dwight Vicks and Derek Smith along with sophomore Matt Broccoli and LJ Hapanowicz will be able to pressure ball in the defensive zone. The attack will be lead by senior tri-captain LJ Combs (14-5-19). Combs and juniors Corey Gleasman (23-5-28) and Kelvin Reynolds (12-4-16) and Jeff Pierce will provide the scoring punch at attack. The Warriors will have the ability to run 3 deep at the midfield. Senior tri-captain Vinny Ouimette paired with juniors Dylan Broomfield (10-6-16) and Dan Silfer will anchor the midfield units. Fellow seniors Blaine Stottlar (20-11-31) and RJ Szuba combined with Charlie Zoeller will provide speed at the midfield that past Warrior teams did not have.  Rounding out the midfields will be a pair of seniors Nick Owens and Jason Gomez with junior Tucker Frantz.  We are extremely deep at midfield and we will run and gun with anyone.  Fundamentals and discipline will be what takes Clinton to the next level.  We have the talent to do it and we look forward to a great season.
