Wildcats is a DVHS-prep baseball program, run in partnership with Canyon Creek Little League and San Ramon Little League. 

The concept is getting DVHS-bound players to play together on a team for 2 years to build camaraderie and better prepare them to play one of the strongest divisions in the country: EBAL. DVHS is at a disadvantage compared to Cal High, SRV, Monte Vista in the number of baseball players from which they have to choose. That simple statistical numbers game puts DVHS at a disadvantage vs the other public high schools, let alone vs De La Salle who recruit the best athletes in the Bay Area.  This team will get DVHS boys playing together as a unit together for a few more years. The DVHS Varsity coach (Brian Nichols) will run practices for 2 years before becoming Freshmen, so they will improve as a unit and be able to play Dougherty-style baseball on day one. Note that the DVHS Varsity coaching has been excellent and DVHS Varsity was ranked above Cal and similar to SRV and Monte Vista in 2019.

DVHS decided not to even have a Freshman team in 2020 and 2021. The reason was exactly due to the fundamental statistical disadvantage DVHS is at with the lower number of baseball players than other schools. With this program, come the spring of 2022, the goal is to bring back the Freshman team, and then this 7th grade team would roll into this in the spring of 2023.

There are some additional costs beyond registration.
