The team was coached by Eric Lambinus '94, now the head coach at Lehigh University, and captured the program's first-ever NCAA Division III National Championship Tournament appearance and victory while posting a 2-1, double-overtime win versus Washington & Lee (Va.) University in the first round at Dickinson College. The squad, which finished the year at 16-6-1, was led by senior forward Megan Collins, who had 16 goals with eight game-winners and six assists, and freshman forward Tracy Fitzpatrick Franklin, one of this year's Hall of Fame inductees, who had eight goals and eight assists, as both players were named to the Commonwealth All-Conference First Team.
