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

Team: Centreville
Nickname: Wildcats
Class/Division: 6A North
District/Conference: Conference 5/ Concorde
Head Coach: Scott Findley
Twitter Handle: @Cville_baseball
2014 Overall Record: 10-9
2014 Post-Season Finish: Lost in the First Round of the Conference Tournament

Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 5
Number of Returning Starters/Pitchers: 7

TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Daniel Woodruff, RHP/1B/OF, 2015
Daniel Lachance, RHP/INF, 2015 (Randolph Macon)
Matthew Blaise, OF/LHP, 2015
Jake Behne, C/2B, 2015
Carter Bach, LHP/OF/1B, 2016 (Ranked #38 in Virginia and #287 Overall)
Ryan Brusick, INF, 2016

Other Players of Interest for the Wildcats: Brian Carmichael (LHP, 2015, Marymount University), Trey House (C, 2015), and underclassmen, Avery Gibson, Jonathan Norton, Tyler Gambone, Alex Simmons, Carter Egbers, Brandon Luke, Ryan Wu, Cristian Sanchez, Ryan Bronder, and Max White.

Outlook:
Centreville is coming off of a decent 2014 season that saw them finish above .500 before being eliminated in the first round of the conference tournament. The 2015 Wildcats return most of their pitchers and a decent portion of their line-up. The rotation will be led by Daniel Woodruff (RHP, 2015), Daniel Lachance (RHP, 2015), Brian Carmichael (LHP, 2015), and Carter Bach (LHP, 2016). The line-up will be built around Jacob Behne (C, 2015), Matthew Blaise (OF, 2015), and Ryan Brusick (MIF, 2016). The Wildcats have a deep and experienced pitching staff and will be solid defensively. If Centreville can generate consistent offense this spring, they will be a factor in the deep Concorde Conference and could make a deep run in the 6a Northern Region Tournament.
