About Prep Baseball Report
Since its inception in 2005, the Prep Baseball Report has evolved into one of the country’s biggest and most respected independent scouting services, with a singular focus of providing comprehensive coverage in every state we are in. The mission of the Prep Baseball Report is to promote high school baseball and, ultimately, help prep athletes achieve their dreams of playing baseball at the next level.
The Prep Baseball Report is the No. 1 resource for high school baseball in each state we cover through our variety of events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work in tandem, ultimately creating the most powerful source of high school baseball promotion in each state. While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.
Our flagship state, Prep Baseball Report Illinois, was launched in 2005 as a print magazine. Over the last 10 years, the Prep Baseball Report has brought the same comprehensive coverage model into 17 states, and counting. Now, more than 450 colleges and pro scouts subscribe to the Prep Baseball Report services. We take great pride in providing the most thorough and comprehensive high school baseball coverage in each state.
We guarantee that we will work tirelessly to see as many players and provide coverage to all corners of the state. But we can't do it alone. We need your help. Email us your college commitments, relevant news, and top players in your area. Send all relevant news to the state's respective scouting director listed on the Contact page.

So begin by setting the 60 range from 6.4-6.8. Now let’s say you are looking for a middle infielder in a specific class, so click shortstop. One step further, you want a left-handed hitter. Click it. Now let’s say the college coach doesn’t have much luck in, say, Missouri, but kills it in Ohio, Illinois and Indiana. Click the desired states. Hit search. Voila, you have your left-handed hitting shortstop who can fly. It’s that easy.
