X-FACTOR

Yoel Tejeda Jr. - The Florida commit will be a huge difference maker for North Broward Prep on both sides of the ball in 2022. He finished 2nd on the team last year in innings and posted a 1.06 ERA while also batting .379 and leading the team in RBI.

OUTLOOK

North Broward Prep is coming off a huge 2021 season where they went on to win the 4A State Championship. The Eagles lose a few key starters from the championship team in Jonah Diaz (Jacksonville), Kobe Benson (Coastal Carolina), Joshua Steidl (Jacksonville), and Shane Huntsberger (Western Carolina). They return Yoel Tejeda Jr. for his senior season who will be huge for them as a two-way in 2022. App State commit Jonathan Xuereb comes to NBP and will also be a big two-way contributor. The Eagles have a lot of talented underclassmen that will make up the depth of their 2022 team.
