Cherry Hill East tied for second last year with West Windsor-Plainsboro. Eastern finished first. This year Dave Gurst, the coach, sees a team with both size and depth and thirteen returning starters. "I don't say we are the best team, but if they play their game they can play with anybody", states Gurst.

Tricia Kang was second team all group four throughout the state last year. Lindsey Tjiattas was first team all Olympic conference. Trish was first team all Olympic conference. Susan Allen was second team all Olympic conference and Laura Baron was second team all Olympic conference.

With this impressive resume of returning starters and all but one starter returning, Coach Gurst is "... pretty optimistic about our season. They set their goals, they know what they want to do and I don't have to say anything to them."

This looks like a team to watch.
