Prep Baseball is the number one resource for high school baseball in each state that we cover through various events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work together, creating each state's most potent high school baseball promotion source.

2024 OUTLOOK

”We're looking forward to having a great season. We only lost 1 senior and return 8 starting position players and our starting DH. We also return all of our pitchers, including our top 2 starters. We'll have a lot of experience coming back, as most of the upperclassman have started Varsity since either 8th grade or Freshman year. We also have some talent waiting in the wings, ready for their opportunity.” - Nate McCollough, Head Coach
