February 24, 2015
By John Nolan
Assistant Director of Scouting-Prep Baseball Report VA/DC
As we prepare for the upcoming 2015 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.
Team: Deep Run
Nickname: Wildcats
Class/Division: 5A South
District/Conference: 11/Colonial
Head Coach: Josh Aldrich
Twitter Handle: N/A
2014 Overall Record: 10-11
2014 Post-Season Finish: Lost 1st Round of the Conference Tournament
Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 5
Number of Returning Starters/Pitchers: 3
TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Patrick Hulihan, LHP, 2015
Alex Kahn, LHP, 2015
Matt Lisi, OF/INF, 2015
Mike Sweeney, INF, 2015
Chris Van Meter, SS, 2015
Matt Spagnolo, OF, 2016
Kyle Baird, RHP, 2017
Outlook:
Deep Run is coming off of a 2014 which saw them hang around .500 before losing in the first round of the Conference 11 playoffs. The 2015 Wildcats should be better as they return a talented core from last year’s team. The pitching staff will feature a pair of experienced lefties in Alex Kahn (LHP, 2015) and Patrick Hulihan (LHP, 2015). The Wildcats’ offense will be led by Chris Van Meter (MIF, 2015), Matt Lisi (OF, 2015), Mike Sweeney (IF, 2015), and Matt Spagnolo (OF, 2016). Deep Run should be very athletic defensively and will rely on pitching and defense to be successful in 2015. If the Wildcats can generate consistent offense, they should be competitive in Conference 11 and the Colonial District.
