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

Team: Hopewell
Nickname: Blue Devils
Class/Division: 3A East
District/Conference: 26
Head Coach: Bobby Pershing
2014 Overall Record: 6-12
2014 Post-Season Finish: Lost in 1st Round of Conference Tournament

Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 5
Number of Returning Starters/Pitchers: 3

TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Travis Hogan, C, 2015
Trent Scott, SS/RHP, 2015
Roman Acord, 3B/RHP, 2016
Nemo Nunez, 1B/P, 2016
Cameron Hill, SS/RHP, 2017

Outlook:
Hopewell is coming off of a down 2014 that saw them fall in the first round of their Conference tournament. The Blue Devils look to be better in 2015 as they return the majority of their infield and some key arms. The infield will be a strength defensively, and will feature Travis Hogan (C, 2015), Trent Scott (MIF/RHP, 2015), Ronan Acord (CIF/P, 2016), Nemo Nunez (CIF/P, 2016), and talented youngster Cameron Hill (MIF/RHP, 2017). Scott, Acord, and Nunez will anchor a veteran staff. While young in the outfield, the veterans around the infield and on the mound should make the Blue Devils competitive this year in Conference 26.
