The Herricanes, reached the semi-finals after winning their bracket in the EPYSA Challenge Cup Competition. Throughout the tournament process which began April 1, 2007 every member of the team contributed to their advancing.

The Herricanes defense was led by sweeper, Ali Naughton and marking backs, Mallory Mugnier, Victoria Zucker and Carli Fitzgerald. Stellar goal tending by Jackie Kershaw and solid mid-field play by Alex Caiazzo, Maggie Meakim, , Christie Kershaw, Gillian Capper and Molly Seefried propelled Hunter's flanks and forwards into good scoring positions. The flank mid-fielders led by Meghan McGovern, Alyssa Kress, Coleen Joyce and Ariel Malis provided support for the Herricanes strikers, Bethanne Goldman, Katie Gallagher and Anna Bocchino.

In the semi final game goals were had by Meghan McGovern, Alyssa Kress, Gillian Capper, Katie Gallagher and a penalty kick by Ali Naughton.

Unfortunately, on May 20, 2007 at West Chester's Delacey Complex the Herricanes lost to Lanco United 3-0. The score was tied 0-0 at half time and two well placed goals by Lanco sealed their victory. This is the furthest any girls team has ever made it in state cup competition from the Hunter Soccer Club. Congratulations to the Herricanes.
