The Colorado high school baseball season kicks off on March 6th, opening day for regular season action under CHSAA regulations. Leading up to opening day, we’ll be publishing our team previews ahead of the 2025 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.

Swan took things over offensively for the Ravens in this one. Simple approach with plate coverage. Stays through the baseball well. @rrhsravensbsbl | @coeliteathletic pic.twitter.com/6jPYIvw22z

2025 SEASON OUTLOOK:

"Our high school baseball team’s strengths lie in our pitching and defense. On the mound, we have a solid rotation of pitchers who consistently throw strikes and keep opposing hitters off balance. Defensively, our players take pride in their ability to make routine plays look effortless while also stepping up in high-pressure situations. Together, these strengths give us a competitive edge in close games and keep us in contention throughout the season. While our team excels in pitching and defense, hitting has been an area where we’ve struggled at times. We’re working on developing more consistent at-bats and improving our ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities. With continued focus and effort, we’re confident this aspect of our game will improve as the season progresses." -Coach Garza
