More than 100 players convened at Champions Baseball Academy in Nicholasville for the third annual Preseason All-State Showcase on Saturday, February 14. In an event that included may of the top players in their respective classes from around the state, the event produced arguably the most talented group assembled for a PBR event since we began operations in the state in October 2012.

Four PBR Kentucky records were either tied or broken during the course of the event.
