The team finished the season undefeated in both the CISAC and HVAL leagues and won both the CISAC and HVAL championships.   
Three members of the Lady Rams were selected as New England All Stars; Victoria Santiago of West Hartford, Taylor Saunders of Hartford and Tianna Conway of Manchester.  It is rare to have three athletes selected for New England All Stars which are chosen by the opposing teams coach
