Here's the preseason CAC assessment of the 2015 Wesley Wolverines…

Every player on the WESLEY roster is now a recruit of head coach
Juli Greep who hopes the Wolverines can improve to a .500 record.
Steph Caracozza, who hit .427 to rank third in the CAC last year, returns for her junior season, while Lindsay Siok and Lily Engel return for their second season in the circle. Commanding the pitching staff from behind the plate while also being a key force in the lineup, Nina Marcano also returns while hitting .356 with a team-high five home runs, 25 RBIs and ten stolen bases a year ago. Also back for the Navy & White are tri-captains Morgan Seymour, Breanna Hartman and Kayla Fromal who have starting spots locked down in the infield, as well as Sarah Saunders in the outfield.
