Penn State women’s soccer is in a bit of a different situation heading into the 2020 season.
The attacking core from the past season stayed intact, with elevated performances toward the end of the season as the group meshed together and worked out the “little things.”

The Nittany Lions’ starting goalkeeper Amanda Dennis, wing backs Ellie Jean and Laura Suero, and center back Kaleigh Riehl have all graduated.
