Posted Mar 11/12 - Season Preview 2012

The 2012 Woodland Beaver baseball team takes the field this season with playoff aspirations- and for good measure-as they return nine players who saw varsity action in 2012.  The outfield will be led by junior Cy Whitmire, who started all 20 games last season for the Beavs and received all-league recognition by the GSHL coaches. He will be aided in the outfield by much improved senior Dylan Wenger, who will start the year in left field.  Juniors Austin Reynolds, and Dustin Schimelpfenig will both provide depth in the outfield and compete for playing time right away.   Look for freshman Trevor Huddleston, a speedy, confident youngster, to also see time in the outfield and on the mound.  Around the infield, the Beavers return a great core group of players, led by senior Troy Wasson at shortstop. Wasson, a sure handed infielder with a quick release, is looking to return to his all-league form of 2010. He will be joined up the middle by sophomore returner Tanner Huddleston, who is the team’s most fundamentally sound player in the field and at the plate.  At the corners, look for rising sophomores Colton Lucas and Hunter Huddleston as break out players this season. Both young men have put on weight and are full of confidence for the new season.  Senior Mason Knight will also see time at first base, though his biggest contribution may be on the mound, as the left-hander was named the team’s best pitcher last season.  Behind the plate will be returning first team all-league catcher Bryce McQuivey (pictured), who led the Beavers in just about every major offensive statistical category last season.  Junior Jacob Knott will be looked upon for depth at the catcher position and first base, while sophomore Kelly Wenger will also see time at the corners depending on pitching match-ups.
