With the 2017 spring season right around the corner, PBR North Carolina is anticipating a great spring.  This is the first year of coverage for PBR during the high school season.  In the coming weeks and months, PBR will report on games, players, conference races and the state tournament.  It is the aim of PBR North Carolina to become your #1 source for high school baseball.

PBR worked to reach out to every team in the state.  A full team preview will be released on every team that filled out the preseason questionnaire sent by PBR.  If you are a coach and haven't filled out your 2017 Team Preview – CLICK HERE

What to Watch For:

Solid core of arms returns for Coach Mills, as the Vikings look to build on a very good 2016 campaign.  Runs could be at a premium early as the top 3 hitters in the 2016 order are replaced.  Plenty of talent, and a history of development, suggest DH Conley will be looking towards another banner year.
