The men, led by the return of Tucker Dordevic and x-factor Brett Kennedy, are trying to get back to the national prominence the program’s lacked in the past decade. All-American senior attack Emily Hawryschuk and the women have as good a chance as ever to win their first national championship in team history. Looming over both programs is the return of the famed No. 22 jersey that’s inspired generations of players, the number women’s head coach Gary Gait pioneered in 1988 and transfer Chase Scanlan will don in 2020.
