Interstate Athletic Conference (IAC)

Bullis Bulldogs  

2025 Record: 5-13

The Bulldogs enter the 2026 spring looking to stay competitive, and some experience on both sides of the ball allow them to do just that. 


Offensively, senior Thomas Bergen and Barrett Pratt are back and should round out the top of the order nicely, with junior Xavier Dickey and sophomores Chase Hellings and Ryan Rosenthal adding some impact throughout. Experience from these upperclassmen will be key, and look for Hellings and Rosenthal to make an immediate impact offensively.


Senior Aiden Parsad looks to lead the pitching staff this spring, as a deep and experienced junior class follows suit in Mac Chrisney, Jared Safra, Sean Donlon, and Marcus Kornegay. Look for Hellings to add some depth on the bump as well and add onto what is already a staff that got some innings on varsity a year ago.

Landon School Bears  

2025 Record: 19-9

Landon made a run at the Hoyas last spring, ultimately falling in the championship series once again. This spring, however, our staff thinks that 2026 might just be the year that the Bears can make a serious run at an IAC title. The return of a highly talented and deep pitching staff, and experienced hitters certainly has Landon all in on a 2026 run.


Offensively, the Bears lose two middle-of-the-order impact bats in Frederic Malek and George Lee to graduation, however, return a slew of impact bats from a year ago, led by a strong senior class in Joshua Burstein (Kenyon), Zach Burstein (Bates), James Gibson (Towson), and Alex Ross (Rensselaer Polytechnical Institute). Junior standouts from a year ago in Jaxon Garon and Matthew Rosner look to solidify roles in the middle of the order, while some young bucks in sophomore Mack Wells and freshman Lukas Eaby vye for key AB’s this spring as well. Plenty of impact top to bottom has this offense ready to make some noise all spring long. 


On the bump, Landon has plenty of talent, both on the front end and the back end. Senior Bo White (Southern California) had a stellar 2025 summer and fall that led to a Power 4 commitment, and the big right-hander looks to stamp a really strong high school career with an IAC title. Not far behind White, fellow senior James Gibson (Towson) also had himself a standout summer and fall, and looks to tandem White as the strongest one-two punches in the conference. Seniors Leo Rosand (Kenyon), Zach Burstein (Bates) and Alex Ross (Rensselaer Polytechnical Institute) will look to add depth throughout the rotation, and look for Matthew Rosner and some underclassmen add some highly important innings on the back end as well.

Georgetown Prep Hoyas  

2025 Record: 20-6

The Hoyas have been at the mountain top of the IAC for a long time now, clinching their 6th consecutive conference title in 2025. Turn the page to 2026, and Georgetown Prep looks to reign supreme once again and defend their title for the 7th consecutive year. 


Offensively, this roster makeup will look a whole lot different, as middle-of-the-order impact bats in Will Twomey, Austin Weiss, Andrew Duncan, and Patrick Colbert have all moved on to play college baseball. A new crop of seniors looks to take over the reins of the offense, led by Caleb Kearns (Chatham), Nick Yalya (Stevens Institute of Technology), Kiernan King, Jonathan Senker, and Tyson Sumner (Fairfield). Junior Luke Crawford (Harvard) had a breakout sophomore campaign a year ago that led to being a Future Games participant, and the left-handed backstop will look to be an even bigger impact player in 2026. Fellow junior Nick Roldan is back from injury and should provide some really nice depth on both sides of the ball. 


On the bump, southpaw Ben Sclafani (Penn State) is back for his junior campaign, coming off one of the more prolific statistical seasons an arm can have last spring. Look for Sclafani to lead this staff, with senior Caleb Kearns aiding as a strong one-two punch at the top of the rotation. We look for junior JT Juhring to add some depth throughout the rotation, and some underclassmen will need to step up and provide big innings behind Sclafani, Kearns, and Juhring.
