Henriques is a 5-9 midfielder and is a 2024 Holy Cross Regional High School grad.

鈥淗e is able to cover ground as a box-to-box midfielder and can physically compete at the highest level,鈥� Lowndes said. 鈥淲e identified at bringing more central players into our squad for this season and we are delighted we were able to secure Dom for next year.鈥�

Gill is a 6-1 defender and graduates from Burnsview Secondary later this year.

鈥淗e is technically very strong and his passing ability is excellent,鈥� Lowndes said. 鈥淗e will provide depth in numerous positions, and I believe that he will be a fantastic addition to our squad.
