 The Ohio Northern women's soccer team will look to have continued success during the 2015 season.

Head Coach Mark Batman returns 22 letter winners from the 2014 squad that went 10-7-2 overall and finished second in the Ohio Athletic Conference play with a 6-2-1 record. The Polar Bears also made their ninth straight appearance in the OAC Tournament.

ONU's 2015 roster is made up of nine freshman, 11 sophomores, eight juniors, and three seniors.

"The hope is that the young players who gained valuable experience last year play like a seasoned group and understand how to manage tight games," said head coach Mark Batman.
