Valpo played an intrasquad scrimmage - here's an abbreviated rport-
LINK
A separate report said: "...Owen Dease was on fire on Saturday during a scrimmage. The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi transfer buried all five of his 3-pointers in the first half. Finished with 17 points."
FWIW - a couple other comments from observers:
"(Sader Servilius) looked like a much more athletic version of Sepp. he had a nice take to the basket, hit a 3. I think he will surprise folks.
Owen Dease has a nice looking stroke and will be a difficult matchup with his hybrid skills on the perimeter.
Barnes might be the most athletic guy on the roster and (Brody Whitaker) plays under control, looks polished.
JT Pettigrew looks promising, Kobe Walker will give us a down low presence, rebounding defense put backs.
(Shon Tupuola) looks like a project and won’t provide much offense.
I think our post scoring presence/and or defense will be our Achilles heel. (Justus McNair) didn’t play"
"(6-11 freshman from New Zealand) Carter Hopoi looked good, I think he is in the starting line up, not sure he is as good of an outside shooter as cooper but has other aspects. He is very athletic and he is proportionally built and strong, looked to be more comfortable around the basket too. Shon Tupuola is a shot blocker and rebounder but isn’t as polished as I thought he would be. I think Kobe Walker (from Normal IL) and JT Pettigrew see back up minutes and will be very good if they commit more than a year. Mark Brown will probably be the starter at the point and will be good if he can keep control. Rakim looked like he will play minutes too, backing up the point. Dease and Barnes are both starters imo. Brody Whitaker will play minutes and could be an off ball shooter or run the point as an alternative some, Tucker will be down the bench. Servilius is an absolute man, built like a brick house. He was aggressive attacking the basket, his shot didn’t look great yesterday but who knows. He won’t be bullied and was a decent defender"
, she’s great! Justice told me he would be ready to go by the first game. I talked to shon and Kobe, both were super nice and outgoing, you could tell they liked the fan support and attention; both just seem like great young men. I think we have a decent team but a great group of guys that we need to support.
