Wolverines Announce Team Captains

Dover, Del. - Wesley College Head Coach Ed Muntz announced that Sara Gergen (Stony Brook, N.Y./Ward Melville) and Jessie Nino (Frederick, Md./Tuscarora) have been named team captains for the 2009 season.

Sara Gergen is coming off another quality season, where she has anchored the Wolverine defense for the last two seasons. Sara is a two-year starter who has shown tremendous leadership on and off the soccer field. Jessie Nino will lead the Wolverine attack, which finished 13th nationally in scoring offense during her freshman year (3.67 goals per game). Jessie currently sits 9th in all-time scoring at Wesley with 17 goals, 8 assists, 42 points and will look to guide a young Wolverine squad.

“Both Sara and Jessie are quality student-athletes that represent the strong traditions of our program. With only nine players returning from last years team, I look forward to watching them lead our young team,” said Coach Muntz.

The Wolverines open up their 2009 campaign on September 1st at Haverford College, PA.

Go Wolverines!
