Arizona Power 25: Updated May 3rd


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, the regular season is wrapping up and some teams are still trying to make a late season push for the playoffs or stronger seeding. We will have one more Power 25 update after this before the playoffs begin. Flagstaff joins our top-25 this week with their 16-1 record. They are a team thats been hard to place this year with their schedule and with limited viewings. We were able to see them come down to Tempe this past week where they showed some talent & under the radar prospects. Canyon View rejoins the board with 3 wins this past week.
