Junior Jordan Byers recently broke the all time points record originally held by former Mustang Angie Loy who had 158 career points. Byers broke this record during the 40th Annual Perry County Tournament where the Mustangs had a victory over Susquenita and Newport. Byers helped the Mustangs win the tournament for the first time since 1999. Byers recently committed to going to the University of Iowa to continue her field hockey career.

Senior Molly Zimmerman has hit 100 career points this season. She is committed to Villanova University to continue her education and major in chemistry and continue her field hockey career.

Amber Krone, Senior at West Perry has future plans to attend college and major in pediatric physical therapy. Her favorite memory is winning Peco this year and getting to spend time with her friends.

Senior Lauren Foster has plans to attend college and get a doctorate in physical therapy. Her favorite pregame ritual is dancing in the locker room. 

Julie Loy, Senior Field Hockey player is undecided on what her future plans may be. She really likes taking naps on the bus to away field hockey games. Loy also joined the 100-point club, doing so against Waynesboro in mid-October.

Senior Carla Campbell wants to be a Veterinary Technician. One of her favorite field hockey memories is getting to be a part of a team that loves each other.

This very strong team is hoping to continue this season strong and make it to states again this year. They are very talented girls with a very good team aspect that will take them far.
