ANNVILLE, Pa. – The Lebanon Valley College women's soccer team has its sights set on the postseason as it heads into 2025, looking to build off the progress the program made last fall. The Flying Dutchmen are scheduled to play in 18 regular-season games this year, including seven home matchups at Herbert Field. 

The Dutchmen finished the 2024 campaign with an 8-8-2 overall record and a 2-3-2 mark against Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) Freedom opponents. Entering this fall, Lebanon Valley was tied for fifth out of eight teams in the 2025 MAC Freedom Women's Soccer Coaches' Preseason Poll, receiving 23 points to be even with FDU-Florham in the rankings. 

"We're going to be a young team again because 23 of our 31 student-athletes are either first-years or sophomores," Head Coach Frank Carrozza said. "I think it is realistic for us to be fighting for a spot in the conference playoffs, which is a goal we will work toward this season."

Lebanon Valley's roster includes 12 first-year players, 11 sophomores, five juniors, and three seniors. Three 2024 All-MAC Freedom honorees lead the list of returnees, including sophomore goalkeeper Camryn Porter, junior defender and midfielder Emilee Walborn, and junior forward Abrielle Miller. 

Porter will look to build upon a debut campaign in which she ranked second in the MAC Freedom with 85 saves while also ranking third with a .759 save percentage and a goals against average of 1.59 per game. The goalkeeper also posted five shutouts during the season. Walborn contributed to LVC's defensive unit that held opponents to 1.61 goals per game, which ranked third in the MAC Freedom last season. Additionally, Miller led the program with nine assists while ranking second with 17 points and four goals as a sophomore.

Another key returner for the Flying Dutchmen is senior forward and midfielder Jordan Lasky, who tied for second on the team with four goals and three assists while ranking third with 11 points. Senior midfielder Alison Sepkovic will also play an important role this fall, following a year in which she tallied six points on two goals and two assists. Additionally, sophomore defender Chloe Moser and senior defender Emily Miller were integral in the squad's defensive production in 2024 and will serve similar roles this season. Moser also logged three assists on the offensive end, tying for the second most on LVC. 

Lebanon Valley will open the campaign on Friday, Aug. 29, at 4:30 p.m., when the program will host Moravian University at Herbert Field. The Dutchmen will then begin MAC Freedom competition on Saturday, Oct. 4, at noon for a battle against Arcadia University in Glenside, Pa. 

Lebanon Valley will host Delaware Valley for a Homecoming matchup on Saturday, Oct. 11, at 1 p.m. The program will also hold Senior Day before its contest against the Aggies, recognizing Lasky, Sepkovic, and Emily Miller. Another key game for the Flying Dutchmen is the squad's road trip to Stevens Institute of Technology on Saturday, Oct. 25, at 1 p.m. in Hoboken, N.J. 

The Dutchmen then play their final regular-season home game on Wednesday, Oct. 29, at 4 p.m., when the team will host King's College at Herbert Field. LVC will close out the regular season on Saturday, Nov. 1, at 3:30 p.m., as the squad will travel to take on Misericordia University in Dallas, Pa.
