Sophomore Summer Analyst Q's

I've recently accepted a Sophomore Equity Research Analyst offer with a BB firm for 2020. I'm certainly excited and looking forward to this experience. However, looking at things in the longer-term, I wonder what my Junior summer will look like after this internship. Is it possible to receive a return offer after a Sophomore internship? If not, is it gauche to try recruiting for the following summer during my time at said firm? Also, on this same topic, if anyone with experience as a sophomore analyst could speak to their experience working in that role, I would be thrilled to learn more in advance. Any advice or insight here would be great. I plan on reaching out to individuals at the firm about this closer to my start date. Thanks!
