PBR Iowa strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across the state. The Prep Baseball Report is the No. 1 resource for high school baseball in each state we cover through our variety of events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work in tandem, ultimately creating the most powerful source of high school baseball promotion in each state.  While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.

2020 OUTLOOK:
“Going into our 2020 season we are extremely excited about the group we have coming back and our junior class. The young men from last years team are a great group of leaders that we will rely on heavily with the loss of some key players from 2019. They have proven to be difference makers. The junior class brings depth to our program that will allow us to keep guys fresh. They have had a ton of success and we look forward to seeing them contribute and compete for us this year.” Head Coach Derek Stecklein
