SAN MATEO, Calif. – With the season opener just two days away, the WCC has announced their Preseason team, which includes SMC's prolific striker Tessa Salvestrin.

Salvestrin, going into her second year with the Gaels, was a thorn in the side of defenses throughout her first year with Saint Mary's.

The 5'11 forward featured in all 18 games for the Gaels last season, starting in 14 of them. Salvestrin tallied three goals in her first campaign, and also recorded a team-leading six assists as well. Over the course of the season she lead the team with shots on goals, always seeming to find open shots even with defenders anxiously trying to slow her down.
