Class/Division: 6A North
District/Conference: 7/Patriot
Head Coach: Jim Sullivan
Twitter Handle: N/A
2014 Overall Record: 15-9

TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Rocky Iboleon, P/OF, 2015
Tom Nicholson, C/RHP, 2015
Brandon Floyd, 3B/RHP, 2016
Jamie Sara, RHP/SS, 2016 (William and Mary, Ranked #20 in Virginia and #121 Overall)
Pavel Strain, OF/P, 2016
Luke Belanger, SS/RHP, 2017
Other Players of Interest for the Wolverines: Kent Sullivan (OF/INF, 2015) and underclassman Ace Edwards (C/RHP)
Outlook:
West Potomac is coming off of a strong 2014 season which saw them make it to the 6A Northern Region semi-finals before their season came to an end. The 2015 Wolverines look to be strong again as they return the majority of their pitching staff and a strong core of their line-up. The offense will be led by Jaime Sara (IF/RHP, 2016), Luke Belanger (MIF/RHP, 2017), Tom Nicholson (C/RHP, 2015), Rocky Iboleon (OF/P, 2015), Pavel Strain (OF/P, 2016), and Brandon Floyd (CIF/RHP, 2016). The pitching staff will be led by Sara and host of other quality high school arms. West Potomac will have good team speed and a deep line-up in 2015, if they can get quality work out of the arms behind Sara, they should be very dangerous in the Patriot Conference and the 6A Northern Region.
