Message: [QUOTE="Powellfan, post: 3740046, member: 4819"] All true, but Nichtern still finished with seven points and Army scored 18 goals. What would Nichtern have done with another defender on him? I didn't think Nichtern tested Kennedy all that much in the first half and then kind of exploded in the second when the SU defense fell apart. Meanwhile Kennedy can't do anything in transition, and isn't helping on the wings. Also think he helps more in the clearing game when he is up top. I was on the fence most of the off season, but Kennedy is one of the best LSMs in the country and I think its being wasted down low. Moving him isn't going to fix everything (far from it) but at least it gets the team an elite player at a position instead of "pretty good" play across the board. Bottom line is the team defense needs to improve, hoping to see that on Saturday. [/QUOTE]
