Everything was in place for goal-scoring forward Casey Whitfield to finish off her career with a fine senior season in 2014, but a torn Achilles heel forced her to redshirt and put her final season on hold.
A year later, Whitfield is finally playing out her senior year.
In eight games this season, the local product from DuPont Manual High School has scored two goals and added two assists to contribute to the Cardinals 4-5-1 overall record.
Whitfield has added pressure on the back line of opposing defenses with 17 shots thus far.
