Prospect Wire 2025 Florida High School Team Outlook:

North Port

Coach Kemo O'Sullivan's team was able to defeat historical powerhouse Sarasota in the opening round of District play last year and the Bobcats will look to take that momentum into 2025 as the Bobcats expect to be competitive in their tough District which include historical powerhouse like Sarasota HS & Venice HS.

The Bobcats will need to replace 2 Way star Josh Doerrfeld who graduated last year, but return plenty of experience from their team last year. Look for Juniors Chase Sivulich (2026 CIF), Wes Stines (2026 P/1B), and Landon Davidson (2026 P/UTIL) to play big roles this year. Coach O'Sullivan will also lean heavily on his talented Sophomore Cian Stephens (2027 RHP/UTIL) to be a top bat and arm for the Bobcats.

Sivulich carried the Bobcats offense last season with 31 Hits, 10 Doubles, 2 Triples, and 2 HR's. Stephens is likely to be needed to carry a heavy load both offensively and on the mound. Stephens had 6 extra base hits last year as a Freshman and on the mound had 44IP with 46K's.
