Gregg spent 426 minutes in goal during the 2020 season. She recorded 47 saves and a 44.3 save percentage in eight games. In her four-year career as a Pioneer, Gregg played 51 games, clocking 308 saves, 90 ground balls and 23 caused turnovers. Her departure leaves a new gap in the defense.
Milleker, meanwhile, came up with 11 draw controls, eight ground balls and seven caused turnovers for the Pioneers. She chose to not opt back in for her extra year of eligibility granted by the NCAA. The loss of Milleker leaves a scarce defensive unit led by Little, who returns as a graduate defender.
“Molly’s been in the draw circle, but she’s really big for us defensively, too,” Kelly said. “She’s somebody that we want on the field the whole game, and that’s why we moved her from midfield to defense so that she really could be on for every draw. She is really aggressive up there. That was an area that we were improving upon as the season ended last spring.”
