West Chester Wolves U18 Announce Captains for 2025-26 Season

The West Chester Wolves U18 AAA team has announced its leadership group for the 2025-26 season, showcasing a mix of size, skill, and grit.

Forward Cooper Rodgers (Phoenixville, PA) has been named team captain. The 6’3”, 181-pound power forward has been a consistent offensive presence at every level, most recently posting 26 points across 41 games last season for the Wolves’ U18 squad. Rodgers’ ability to lead by example, combined with his work ethic and scoring touch, make him the clear choice to wear the “C.”

Joining him as alternates are forwards Gavin Andersen (Texas) and Ronnie Felikian (California). Andersen, a versatile forward with strong two-way instincts, is coming off a solid 16U season where he put up 26 points in 53 games. Felikian, new to the Wolves program this year, brings an offensive spark after tallying 44 points with the California Wave last season.

Head Coach Jacob Smulevitch praised the trio’s blend of leadership qualities:

“Cooper, Gavin, and Ronnie represent the heart of this team. They bring different strengths — size, playmaking, and energy — but together they set the tone for how we want to play and carry ourselves as a group. We’re excited to see them lead the way this season.”

With Rodgers, Andersen, and Felikian leading the Pack, the Wolves U18s are locked in and ready to chase success in 2025-26.
