Leading up to opening day, we’ll be publishing our team previews ahead of the 2024 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, counting down through 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.

Coach’s Insight:

“Returners [will be a strength for us]
We lost 1 player (Aiden Smith/ C) (.413 AVG/ 8 2B/ 26 RBI)

All of our pitchers are returning, along with adding a few in the Freshman and Sophomore class.

SR class has 4 players that have played since they were Freshman.
The JR class have had 2 play since they were Freshman.

Our team will be full of talented upperclassmen that are able to lead the talented underclassman. The leadership on this team is very high. We need to solidify our catching position. Both Gage Green (JR) and Dalton Manlove (SO) will be expected to take the majority of the innings. ” – Zac Stewart, head coach
