KEY RETURNERS MAKE SEASON DEBUTS
- Juniors Megan Lee and Morgan Linsley, who both earned Pocock All-America status for their efforts during the 2021 spring season, will make their first appearance of the fall.
- Two of the Blue Devils' three All-ACC honorees from a season ago -- Sydney Johnson and Gabriella Salvati -- will make their season debut.
