OUTLOOK:

North Stafford High School had a successful 2014, advancing to the quarterfinals in the 5A Northern Region tournament. The Wolverines return the majority of their squad in 2015 and look particularly strong on the mound, where they will be led by seniors Austin Meyer (RHP, 2015), Ian Pape (C/RHP, 2015), and closer Taylor Barker (MIF/P).  The Wolverines should also expect contributions from talented youngsters Dawson Sims (RHP, 2017) and Ryan Kennedy (LHP, 2017). The offense will be led by Pape, Barker, and Austin Gregory (OF, 2016). The Wolverines’ experience and talent makes them a team that should compete for the Commonwealth Conference and 5A Northern Region championships this season.
