X-FACTOR
Carson Montgomery. Montgomery transferred to Windermere this season and is currently the No 6 overall prospect in the 2020 class. With a fastball that has been up to 95 mph and a true plus slider at 86 mph, Montgomery looks to add to the already deep pitching staff.

OUTLOOK
Coming off of their first season in existence, the Wolverines are loaded at the top of their rotation. Led by Bryce Hubbart, Noah Janney and Carson Montgomery, Windermere has three Division I arms to lead the way. The Wolverines also return all of their offensive lineup from the 2018 season, which gained a lot of valuable experience. Added experience, paired with high-end arms on the mound will have Windermere set to make a run in 2019.
