The Colorado high school baseball season kicks off on March 7, opening day for regular season action under CHSAA regulations. 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 Colorado 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 2024 preseason coverage continues today:

2024 SEASON OUTLOOK:

The Cheyenne Mountain program graduated five seniors in 2023 who are now playing college baseball this spring. Coach Swope is hoping some of the juniors can take another big step this year while seniors Jack Erlander and Robbie Namnoum will likely carry the load on the mound. This junior class is led by a strong catching prospect in Nate Glad, and right-hander Charlie Doyle could pick up some much needed innings for the team as well. The Red-Tailed Hawks will take on the 4A Pikes Peak league where they have had plenty of recent success.
