2024 Spring Team Preview: Wooster Generals

Team Name: Wooster Generals
Head Coach: Steve Young
Division: I
2023 Record: 23-5
2023 Tourney Finish: Regional Semifinals loss to Medina

Coach Outlook: "We’re looking forward to competing every day and trying to steadily build as we progress through a challenging schedule. It’s cliche, but we just want to get a little better every day and see where we end up in May. We lost a lot of talent from last year’s team and we’re working through who is going to step up and earn those open spots through all of our preseason work. The key for us is trying to cultivate the team chemistry we had last year with a lot of new faces & playing desperate every day to try and earn everything we want to accomplish."
