The Keydets return six starters from the 2018 campaign and two part-time starters. Lone senior Cooper Duplantis, a defender, and sophomore goalie Broden Schull both got the starting nod in each of VMI’s 18 games a year ago.
Juniors Willson Tuck and Richard Quispe and sophomores Carson Knox and T.J. Hurd return to the lineup while junior Benjamin Skibicki and sophomore David Carlson are also back after combining for 15 starts.
These two teams last faced off in the 2013 season, with the Eagles posting a 5-1 win in a Big South Conference game. Aaron White scored the Keydets goal, assisted by Travis Borkey. Winthrop was 4-11 in 2018.
