CAMP DEADLINE

Wolverine sports for visitors
Softball camp sign up
has Saturday deadline


The date for the Wolverine Softball Skills and Prospect Camp is fast approaching.

Softball camp 


The softball camp will emphasize mechanical and 
technical skills which includes hitting, fielding, 
pitching/catching and base running
The Wesley Wolverine softball skills event will be held all day Saturday, November 22 from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM at Westly West Fieldhouse and its adjoining field. 

The deadline for sign up – which was sold out last year – is this coming Saturday, November 1.

This camp is designed for skilled softball players who wish to advance their level of play as well as showcase their abilities for Wesley college coaches. The current Wesley softball squad will assist with the day's program.

Visitors with attending players can catch a few of the workouts at the Dupont Softball Field. But no visitors, spectators, or family members will be allowed at the indoor sessions.

There's plenty to do, however, in and around the Dover area
for a camper's visiting family and friends.

One excellent suggestion is Wesley Wolverine sports!

Wolverine football

The softball camp fee includes a Wesley Wolverine football ticket should the team have a home game that day at Scott D. Miller Stadium, sitting behind the DuPont Softball Field.

Wesley's football team set a new school
record for points in a game this past 
weekend with a 75-12 victory over 
Virginia University of Lynchburg.

Now that may or may not happen. It could be an off day for the Wolverine football as the team will have concluded their regular season the week before and prepare for a berth in the NCAA play-offs.

Should you be one of the very few who do not know about Wesley Wolverine football, you need to catch up on one of the most exceptional teams in the nation.

The Wolverines are currently 8-0 on the 2014 season, averaging over 52 points per game, and ranked #4 among Division III colleges nationwide. They also are ranked the #1 Division III team in the East by the Eastern College Athletic Conference's (ECAC's) Lambert Meadowlands football poll. These Wolverines routinely compete against colleges and universities with student bodies significantly larger than Wesley College's undergraduate class.

The football team has advanced to NCAA Playoffs nine-straight seasons – soon a certain 10th invitation this year, while winning 22 NCAA Playoff Games during this time that includes five National Semifinals and three NCAA Quarterfinals. In this period, a Wolverine player has been selected to the AFCA All-America Team every year, which is currently the longest-active streak in the nation and one of the all-time Division III record for consecutive selections.

A Wolverine football game is always a guaranteed exciting few hours of gridiron action.

Wolverine basketball


As football winds down, Wolverine basketball is just starting up! 


During the softball camp, Wesley basketball 
takes on the Washington College Shoremen 
in the  Wentworth Gymnasium.
In the heart of campus, during the afternoon sessions of the softball camp, the Wesley Wolverine men's basketball will be playing their fourth game, second at home, of the 2014-15 season. This contest is against Washington College Shoremen, a school located across the Maryland border, just 35 miles west of the Wesley campus. Game time is 2:00 PM, Saturday, November 22, in the Wentworth Gym.

As the season gears up in two weeks, Wolverine hoops are tied for #27th in the nation among DIII colleges, according to the early preseason D3hoops.com men's Top 25 poll. That's not surprising after these Wolverines posted a program-best 23-4 record last season to pick up a Capital Athletic Conference (CAC) regular season title and the college's first-ever NCAA Basketball Tournament victory.

There are no bad seats for a Wesley basketball game with every fan close to the court's action.
