Arizona Power 25: Updated April 26th


Brett Thorney
State Scouting Director

Welcome to the PBR Arizona Power 25 Rankings

The Spring baseball season in Arizona had officially begun with teams having started live games on March 12th. The PBR Arizona staff has also started to begin its 2021 season coverage in addition to its weekly Power 25 rankings. Over the course of the week, we have been posting some scores & highlights in our HS Roundup as well as nominating a Player of the Week. We will also begin running a weekly scout blog that will feature prospects that we have seen in our in person coverage.  This is our April 20th update of our Arizona Power 25 rankings and will do our best to update every Monday as the season progresses until the HS season concludes. PBR looks forward to getting out there the rest of the spring to see some great baseball. 

In this addition, there wasn't a ton of movement. Three teams join our Top-25. Higley and Mesa Mountain View rejoin the list. Perry joins the list for the first time this year. Looking at the Pumas record one might think they dont belong but they play one of the toughest schedules out there and have some big wins against strong teams. The same could be said about teams like Chaparral & Brophy College Prep. Playoffs will be here before you know it and we are looking forward to seeing how things shake out.
