Over the next few weeks, leading up to the beginning of the 2026 MD High School season, our staff will be releasing our Preseason Power 25. This list will be comprised of public and private schools across the state that we feel have a strong chance of being successful in 2026.

# 24 Dulaney Lions   

The Lions see a jump into 4A for the 2026 spring, and this move might just see a clearer path to a state title run than recent years. The return of basically their entire starting lineup has Dulaney poised for a huge offensive 2026 spring, and look for some of their young bucks to make considerable jumps in production on the offensive side of things. The pitching staff sees their dynamic "ace" graduate; however, the return of top-end depth and another year of experience for some younger talent should see this staff rebound nicely throughout the spring.
