The high school season is upon us, and after a preseason full of events we saw some new faces, and some strong peformances from the off season. Here we will have a minor update before the high school season kicks off Monday. Our Preseason Events are a great time to show improvements from the off season, as well as get on our radar to come out to watch this spring.

As always, the evaluation process is a fluid and ongoing process with multiple viewings in order to get the best feel for players abilities. It’s important to note that as players continue their development some show marked improvement at a much more rapid pace. That doesn’t indicate that other players got worse or went backwards, it’s just how player development works. As the year unfolds, players make improvements and new prospects pop up on the radar expanding the PBR rankings universe. In addition to the evaluations of players, our scouts, both those in Georgia and nationally, have also had multiple discussions with each other to review our individual lists and then make adjustments based on what we've each seen.
