Ah yes, Hopkins . Better to leave the  deflections and need to assuage to a fragile UVA fanbase and for Cuse's focus to be on a solid JH squad .

Hopkins has talent, their roster reads like a list taken from IL's top twenty five rankings. They are  coming off a strong 2nd half vs Princeton which they apparently dominated with physical play so they will likely come into  the Dome with confidence and emotionally charged.  Meanwhile, the controversy has somewhat distracted from a good team performance, hopefully has not lessened the uplift that a good road victory normally provides.

It's been a topsy turvy season for almost all top teams and this game has its trappings if Cuse not on its game.

Solomon's movement and passing will likely be missed.  Assume Voight will start, he is a good player with great hands and has that lazer, hopefully the ball will find him in his spots.  Hopkins has braun so not the easiest intro  for a youngster but perhaps  the considerable skills of Seebold are seen as well and the staff might surprise with a twist or two. Mids seems to be hitting stride as time jells and keys begin to surface.

On D, not sure who takes on Williams given his size but assume it would be Tyson B if he is back. Hopkins fogo and wing play will be another tough challenge, we fortunately have depth and several options. Not that keen on jockeying talent around because coordination suffers but might need to be done.  Hoping for great news on both Fernandez and Conrad and a return to fold by Helmer and others .

Cuse may be slight favorites given home game but it will be highly competitive as always with JH.
