This year, Latsko made four appearances for the club before being forced to miss the remainder of the season with a left knee injury.

“Very pleased Veronica has re-signed, and we are excited for her to be back on the field and competing,” said Dash head coach James Clarkson. “Her injury last season was a huge blow but her dedication and determination to get back has been inspiring.”
