The West Potomac Wolverines enter their 40th year of competition and 23rd year wearing the silver, blue, and white. West Potomac enjoys a long rowing history and a tradition of excellence, dating back to 1968 as Fort Hunt High School. At the inception of Fort Hunt’s team, only five other local high schools had rowing programs. The Fort Hunt team, under former Head Coach Charles "Chick" Little, fielded many successful crews and celebrated many victories, including winning 4 titles at the prestigious Stotesbury Cup regatta. In 1985, Fort Hunt and Groveton High Schools were merged to create a new high school. The Fort Hunt Legacy continues to this day under the West Potomac name.
