The women's soccer team opens the 2026 season at home on Hitchcock Field on Saturday (Sep. 5) at 12 pm against NESCAC Opponent, Conn. College. The Mammoths finished the 2025 season with a record of 11-5-2 and 5-3-2 in the NESCAC, with appearances in the NESCAC Quarterfinals and the NCAA Tournament.

Jen Hughes enters her 22nd season in the Pioneer Valley as the head coach of Amherst.

Senior Jessica Lomo and junior Caroline Coletti also are back for the Mammoths this fall as some of the top scorers alongside Darling.
