After starting four first-years and only winning five games last season, the Loyola women’s soccer team has its eyes set on improvement after a disappointing 2016 campaign. Last season, they finished 5-11-3 and 2-4 in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) and were hit hard by injuries and inexperience.
Led by five seniors and 18 total returning letterwinners from last season, the team has set a lofty goal of going from the bottom of the conference to the top by winning an MVC championship.
“You obviously start every season with the goal of an MVC championship and this one is no different with the returning talent and improvement we’ve seen since last year,” said head coach Barry Bimbi.
