As we prepare for the upcoming 2015 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.

Team: Colonial Forge
Nickname: Eagles
Class/Division: 6A South
District/Conference: 4/Commonwealth
Head Coach: Shawn Szakelyhidi
Twitter Handle:  N/A
2014 Overall Record: 15-7
2014 Post-Season Finish: Lost in the Conference Tournament Semi-Finals

Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 7
Number of Returning Starters/Pitchers: 6

TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Shawn Nickles, OF/RHP, 2015 (Concord)
Gabe Schilke, Catcher, 2016 (Naval Academy)
Matthew Nickles, RHP, 2016
Michael Nickles, 3B/RHP, 2017
Logan Barker, SS/RHP, 2017
Steven White, 2B/SS, 2017

Outlook:
Colonial Forge is coming off of very good 2014 regular season that saw fall just short of making a Regional appearance. The 2015 Eagles will again be a good team as they return the bulk of their lineup and the majority of their pitching staff from last season. The pitching staff will be led Matt Nickles (RHP, 2016). The lineup will be led Shawn Nickles (OF/RHP, 2015), Gabe Schilke (C, 2016), Mike Nickles (CIF/RHP, 2016), Logan Barker (MIF/RHP, 2017), and Steven White (MIF, 2016). The Eagles will have a deep and dangerous lineup that will be solid defensively. If their pitching depth develops throughout the season and can keep them in games, Colonial Forge will be very competitive in the Commonwealth Conference and will contend to go to the 6A South tournament.
