Though the Wolverines played just 34 games (#5 among the conference's 8 teams), Wesley ► led the league with 18 triples (which also was #12 NCAA national D3 rank), finished ► #3 with 205 runs scored in the CAC (which also was #84 NCAA national D3 rank), again ► #3 with 297 hits, yet again ► #3 with a .403 batting average, and still again ► #3 with a .403 on-base percentage. Wesley was 1 run short among conference teams for ► #3 in the RBI category, as well. The team ► slugged .449 for a CAC #4 place (which also was #92 NCAA national D3 rank).

Watch out CAC, this is a young team, losing just one senior, adding more depth next year, who are posed to spring toward their best season yet!
