8-21-07
CALDWELL, N.J. - The Caldwell College women's soccer team was
predicted to finish seventh in the Central Atlantic Collegiate
Conference this season, according to the CACC Preseason Poll as
voted on by the league's 12 head coaches. The Cougars received 70
points in the poll, which selected defending CACC Tournament
champion Philadelphia University the favorite for the upcoming 2007
season.
Head coach Nate Guagliardi begins his first season at
Caldwell with nine players back from last season's squad that went
7-11-1 and placed seventh in the CACC, missing the conference
tournament for the first time in three years. Three all-conference
players headline the returnees, with senior forward Brook DeLucca
(Nutley, NJ/Nutley), senior midfielder Carla Bleiler (Galloway Twp.,
NJ/Absegami) and junior midfielder Kristee Paknis (Whiting,
NJ/Manchester) back to help the Cougars return to teh CACC
Tournament.
With the addition of Chestnut Hill College bringing the total of
conference members to 12, the CACC Tournament field has expanded
from six teams to eight teams beginning this season.
Caldwell begins the season on Saturday, Sept. 1 at Philadelphia
University at 12:00 p.m.
