LYN - Hearing quite a few accepted in graduate programs.

Hadley in goal & Henri Marindin return joining rising sr. Dom Zingo on close D. (+ another pole)

Riley Mitchell, Dylan Wolfe and McCarthy and Ethan Cotter all returning = no losses on O

Dylan Shuster 2nd LSM returns (Darminio accepted into graduate program and will play @ Jacksonville)

Both FOGOs - Jr. and Soph.

Long way away but a close nit group.

The top four teams should remain near the top.

Lynchburg certainly seems like they are poised to improve, W&L returns a great deal as well. I believe Middlebury was also pretty young this year as well, perhaps I’m wrong though.

Gettysburg needs to replace a lot. Had several freshman and sophomores make significant contributions but will lose tons of senior experience/leadership. Anxious to see how Coach Toner proceeds next year.

Who will be the tops teams in 2024?

All depends on the portal. Otherwise it should be a rinse and repeat of the usual teams.

Maybe the question is can (or should I say will) Salisbury repeat?

CNU - Returns the most out of anyone. 8 All-Americans and 6 of them will be 5th years. This group will come in to the year looking for revenge after years of falling short to Salisbury. Hearing some buzz about a few transfers coming in. The incoming class is very talented

Salisbury - Losing Cross, Timmons, Brown(hopefully), Woodward, Ballard, and Thrasher will hurt, but Salisbury is Salisbury and I assume they will bring in some talent. That 1st Midfield line, Defazio, Malamphy, and Ransom will headline a talented front line.

Bowdoin - The return essentially every single starter and will come back looking to turn around a rather disappointing year. Will Byrne is one of the best players in the country.

Tufts - I don't know much about them next year since they do lose a lot, but with how dominant they were this past year against most teams, I don't see them dropping out of the top 10.

RIT - Lose some really talented players, but also return a ton of depth. Gaston was on pace for a ton of goals this year before getting hurt and missing a few games. Need to figure out the FO issue.

Dickinson - Extremely talented team with a ton of depth. Losing Brandau and McCloskey will hurt the defense. They have a ton of guys waiting to step up and they were 20 seconds away from a final 4 appearance last year.

Middlebury - Don't know a ton about them, but I do know a lot of their guys were very young and they should return a ton of talent.

CNU is doing a tremendous recruiting job with top in State schools and clubs. The incoming class has three players from the a top DMV club team and some strong in state players. I think this keeps the program near the top for years. The other D3 programs in VA just have not seemed to do the same with in state talent.
