After a poor 1924 season, the Washington Potomacs moved to Wilmington, DE in 1925 and became the Wilmington Potomacs. They finished last in the Eastern Colored League at 12-21 under manager Danny McClellan. Webster McDonald went just 3-9 on the mound while speedy outfielder Country Brown batted .420. The team disbanded that year.
