Dang, there is a hole in the Terps roster where #35 George Wichelns had been.
I had some high hopes for Wichelns.

Maybe he will redshirt... but probs transfer

Usually, if they are gone from the roster, they are gone for good.
An example of one who returned is Drew Harrison.

Could explain why N. DeMaio came this year and not next

There are a whole host of possibilities. The most obvious: no need to cool your heels or pay for a second semester as a PG if UofM is admitting you for the spring semester and that's where you want to go.

So I guess that makes 2 former UA AAs, who are not on the Terps' roster: Colin Hinton who left the team last Spring and Wichelns.

Doesn’t matter that they played in UA game. It’s more politics than merit. Terps will be fine. This is a possible transition year and I expect team to be dynamite in 2020.

Not saying it would really hurt the Terps, just saying that here are 2 very good players, who might show up somewhere else down the road.

Two outstanding high school players, Hinton making Post All-Met and Wichelns All-Long Island. Where they fall on the D1 level, is not fully known.

Zach Green, a 2019 recruit from Calvert Hall also not on roster either

along with Evan Malgier (NJ, LSM).

Z.Green was one of those early recruits, who was well-thought of early on and looked like he might be a top guy as a sophomore, but then seemed to get stuck on the 2nd midfield as a senior behind some talented players at Calvert Hall.

First scrimmage next Saturday. Currently snow is in the forecast.

Came across this podcast for the 2019 season

Didn't really tell us anything new.

Former Terp Joe Cummings was named HC for the MLL Charlotte Hounds

I was looking at CHC's 2019 roster and they literally have a D1 player at every starting spot as well as on the 2nd Middy line. That's pretty ridiculous...

Yeah, I don't think this guy is an insider or very analytical. I don't think he's adding much to the conversation.
