What players are Valpo bringing? My guess is Ryan and Javon.

That's a really solid guess, can't argue with those two if that's the case.

Seems that they would have a hard time leaving Sackey at home.  He's on the intro page for the web-site, and seems (to my outside eye) to be team leader.

Looks like your guess was right on the money.

You make a good point.  Sometimes a pick isn't about leadership as much as it is inclusion of different leaders at different times.  Sackey is not a threat to defect next year.  Keeping Javon tied into the program and feeling like a visible team leader may be a reason enough.

Good point as well.  Seems that they have a nice problem to have in that they have several good choices, but could only choose two (if they were so limited - I don't know).

However, in arguing against you, wasn't Golder somewhat of a centerpiece at the event last year?  If it didn't help his retention, are we sure that it will help in Javon's case.  Fazekas is a senior, so retention for him is not an issue.

Still, I think you're right, but it's a close one.

Good representation for Valpo. Can only take two players, so you usually want seniors and best players. Javon is our best player ( at least in my opinion ) and Ryan  is our most valuable senior. I think Daniel will get his turn later.

Knowing Valpo they should have taken Donovan Clay so he could have stayed in his own bed in Alton. Much cheaper.

Ok, that was very facetious.
