I’m not willing to go that far. He has certainly left me wanting more and a lot more given his build and skill but we see flashes and given his injury history I hope he can put to together and become the player we all expected. He has been one of the Jays best midfielders this year

I’m surprised, not much St Joe talk. This is a legit team that is coming to Homewood. Probably the soft spot is the goalie. Hopkins needs to get possessions, and get shots off! A lot of older guys on the team, they won’t make mistakes.

We do not lose to St. Joes. WE WANT MORE.

This flew under the radar and I wonder if it has something to do with the other SSDM in that class Ace Lumpris starting to get D1 football offers

Yes, Ace, who is PG’ing at Lawrenceville and looked to be part of the L’ville-JHU pipeline, has reportedly recently received football offers from Penn, Princeton and Lafayette, among others, and football is in his blood: his dad played DL at Temple and coaches football and lax in Tolland, CT, and his younger brother is a promising WR, so lax may be losing out.

Fun fact of the day (in addition to the fact that Hopkins has a lax recruit named Ace Lumpris):

Dan Denihan and Brian Carcaterra are managing partners of a real estate investment and development firm named … you guessed it … Homewood Real Estate Partners.

At 5’ 11”, 155, he might not have been picked up by the radar. Would seem to need to put on some beef to play SSDM at Hop level

I believe Ace is off to play football. Could be wrong.

Marcille and Degnon back, according to IL.

No mention of Nawreski. I have bad feelings about that.

we're down a f/o and 2nd midfielder. that's relative health.

excited to see the offense expand the major emo progress last week to the 6v6 this week w/return to health plus the growth of the regulars in the crawley offense.

st.joes doesn't post a game notes. savages.

40mph winds are going to play havoc with passing. Look for plenty of dodging—Collison’s game.

40??? That's a tropical storm. My weather app is saying ~20 mph at game time. Still pretty high but not sure that's something that will drastically alter how the game is played.

Wearing the all-whites today. Go Jays. Have fun at the "beer garden" for whoever's braving the winds

Plenty of 40mph wind GUSTS.

Marcille and Degnon are indeed starting but Angelus is not among the starters listed. Getting pretty sick of this

Why on earth would that middie sub off there?

We should be able to score 15+ today

Blue Jays too slow to slide.

Holding their own on faceoffs.

Jays are looking strong. St. Jose are looking like an overrated bunch
