2016-17 record: 17-8
Top returning players: Popeh Chiquiti, senior; Isaiah Calloway, junior.
Key newcomers: Kanikki Hale, senior; Marcus McLean, senior; Kynoa Sipai, junior.
Outlook: The program graduated nine players last year, so there will be plenty of new faces on the roster with a chance to step up. Despite this, Boyd said his team is playing for another top four finish with a chance to get back to the postseason.
