The Arkansas high school baseball season kicks off on Mar. 3, opening day for regular season action under AAA regulations. Leading up to opening day, we’ll be publishing our team previews ahead of the 2025 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, counting down to the official Prep Baseball Arkansas Preseason Power 25 Rankings.

Perennially, we’ve submitted a preseason questionnaire to high school head coaches across the entire state. Their responses have been flooding in and we’re using the detailed insight they’ve provided in our team-by-team preseason analysis.

Our 2025 preseason coverage continues today.

Coach’s Insight: “Our team strengths are speed on the base pads and some experience in some key positions. This team is mostly made up of juniors and sophomores with at least a year or two of experience starting at their positions. The potential for these players is very high, and when it all comes together for them, we can be a very dangerous team and shock some people. Weaknesses for this team will be consistently taking quality AB's and putting the ball in play. Last season, we struggled with not going up to the plate with the right approach and having too many swings and misses. Putting the ball in play and putting pressure on the defense has been a key focus point this offseason. ” – Trey Gossett, head coach
