Drake seems to have a better outside shot. I'd rather see him stay at midfield in favor of Gleason sliding to attack. Maybe we'll see them both play both.


Am I wrong. We'ren't we playing him at attack this year?

He's listed at attack on the roster.

that's not too reliable. Willets is listed as a midfielder for example. Drake subbed in through the box as part of the top group of offensive midfielders in the middle of the year. He displayed prowess both shooting from up top and dodging from X. He started a couple games at midfield when Costabile and Gleason were hurt, and spent some time on the top EMO unit. Seemed to disappear, presumably injured, from the UNC game on. He was dressed for the tournament game against Denver, but did not play.

I expect he'll be an important cog in the offense next year at attack and/or midfield.
