McDonogh will be looking to go back to their fourth consecutive MIAA- A conference title game this season. The Eagles are two-years removed from winning the championship.

The Eagles put up 17 wins last season but weren’t able to derail the freight train that was Calvert Hall in the title game.

It’s a new year but it’s the same mission for this group that is built on senior leadership and head coach Andy Hilgartner has scheduled another rough month of OOC games for the Eagles.

McDonogh will be a favorite this season to win the conference championship for the depth they have and the veteran experience at every position.

Key returners…

Jack Simmons — midfield, Sr

Jack Sweeney — attack, Sr

Andrew Hurdle — midfield, Sr

Griffin Catlett — midfield, Sr

Chris Smith- defense, Sr

BJ Farrare — athlete, Sr

Rich Dion — defense, Sr

Outlook:

“Incredibly challenging out of conference schedule will hopefully prepare us for the gauntlet of the MIAA. Big senior class with some very good leaders. Caring for one another and being resilient will be keys for our success.” Andy Hilgartner.

Out of Conference games:

Haverford (PA), Oxbridge Academy (FL), Benjamin (FL), St. Thomas Aquinas (FL), Bullis, Chaminade (NY), Hereford, Culver Academy (IN).
