Scrimmages certainly serve a purpose but that varies on what is sought .  2018 fall season saw sluggish performances vs Marist and Vermont before terrible vs Yale  and that carried over to opening game loss to Colgate  before team settled in.

It's known what returning vets bring to table so eyes gonna be focused on a few players for a few open spots and Scanlan.  Assume Cook starts at 3rd attack but expect Seebold to get good look.  Expecting Dordevic to stay up top  but  experiment at attack by him or Curry certainly grab attention. Be looking for differences  how offense operates under March.  
Expect several vets to be shut down by mid 3rd  though some may shift around on D. The others sophs mentioned at att and mid above probably run from late 3rd on. Hill missing but betting on a talented soph mid or two to emerge as a factor from that pack  as Buttermore did last year ..
 Dami return could free Helmer to grab a pole for cd or even lsm. Hoping to get a glance at  Dieball and Aviles at dm.. DiPietro and Murphylikely  start next to Mellen but Helmer likely showcases there and perhaps Kennedy as well. Process of filling out depth chart. Young Kennedy was showing well but told he's now out for fall with wrist injury. Not sure what story is with Lee but he wasn't  practicing at season start and dont think Stats is ready to go. Porter and Strang entrenched 1-2  but  thinking Katchurian can challenge to be  3rd goalie . Hopefully one of the  young fogos can show enough to offer another look to Phaup-Varello.
