Joining them as freshmen in this year\u2019s recruiting class are Megan Cavoli and Grace Thomas. Three of the freshmen played their high school basketball at Pennsylvania schools; Foddrell played in Virginia and Kirby played in Delaware.<\/p>\n<p>The recruiting class also features three transfers. Of the transfers, two are familiar with the PSAC having earned their undergraduate degrees at Shepherd and California (Pa.) respectively. The third is a junior college transfer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe experience of our transfers can only add to our overall depth quickly,\u201d Trn said. \u201cThere are many possibilities we can throw out there this year. Only time will tell how quickly we embrace the process in terms of reaching our goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The recruits will join seven returning players from a 2021-22 Raider team that reached the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Tournament for the third time in the last five seasons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very excited for the upcoming season and the opportunity to work with a combination of experience and youth to see how we can continue to grow as a program and within the PSAC,\u201d Trn said. \u201cAlthough we have lost a tremendous amount of talent due to graduation, we also return some proven and experienced athletes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>2022-23 Women\u2019s Basketball Recruiting Class<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Megan Cavoli<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Freshman<br
