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.

2024 SEASON OUTLOOK:

Coach Jordan Johnson led this program to a regional appearance in his first season, and is looking to build further off of last year. This group consists of a good mix of juniors and seniors, while they do have three players already committed to playing college baseball in spring 2025. Jaxon Case, Grant Bazinet, and Mason Regan all could lead the way offensively for the Eagles this spring, but also be on the lookout for contributors like; senior Jonah Mayoral and junior Hunter Eells. The Eagles did lose some firepower on the mound from last season, but if they are able to get solid production out of their arms in 2024, then we could see a strong year from the Heritage program.
