“Jamie graduated in 2006 and went on to play at Nazareth. She is currently in medical school at the University of Pennsylvania.

“Megan is a senior this year. Her story is coming back from two anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. She was sixth man as a freshman on the sectional championship team. Blew out each knee in the spring of her freshman and sophomore years.

“Megan has not had the career we thought, but is finally healthy and will have a big year,” Vogt said.
