Scoring Trio Returns for Field Hockey Team

The Fox Chapel field hockey team finished with a 14-3-1 record last year and claimed its third consecutive WPIAL Section 2 championship. The Foxes fell in the WPIAL semifinals to Pine-Richland.

Coach Jen McCrady will have to replace 2015 graduates Meghan Lucas, Elizabeth Savin, Claire Durr and Megan Martin, but she will have eight starters returning — including the explosive trio of junior midfielder Meg McCrady (16 goals, 13 assists), sophomore forward Paige Ryan (20 goals, five assists) and sophomore midfielder Abby Pitcairn (26 goals, 17 assists).

McCrady has already made a verbal commitment to play lacrosse for Georgetown, while Pitcairn was selected to the 17U USA national field hockey team this summer.
