The Kansas high school baseball season kicks off on Mar. 20, opening day for regular season action under KSHSAA 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 to the official Prep Baseball Kansas 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.

Our 2025 preseason coverage continues today.

Top Returners:

• P Jack Larsen (2025) - 6'2", 200, R/R
  • Workhorse on the mound that produces a lot of weak contact.
• 3B/P Andy Devers (2026) - 5'8", 185, R/R
  • Does a nice job of attacking the zone and changing speeds. Good approach at the plate with lots of pop.
• C Miles Hignite (2025; Highland CC) - 5'11", 175, R/R
  • Solid behind the dish and can really shut down the opponents run game.
• 1B/OF Cal Clark (2025; Washburn) - 5'10", 180, L/L
  • Dlus defender with a smooth swing from the left side. Cal led the team in hits and batting average in 2024.

Top Newcomers:

• UTL Brogan Jaworski (2025) - 5'11" 185, R/R
  • Can help us in multiple ways and should be a good offensive contributor.
• UTL Chris Rocha (2025) - 5'9", 165, R/R
  • Solid bat with a lot of plate discipline

Key Players Lost:

• Luke Howard (Quincy)
• Jake Shields (Highland CC)

Coach’s Insight: “We have three strong starting pitchers returning along with eight position players. Our senior class is solid and we will lean on their experience and leadership throughout the season. Our depth should be a major strength of our team this year with some talented juniors and sophomores pushing for some playing time. Our defense must improve in 2025 if we are going to make a splash. We had too many fielding errors and free bases to win those close games. With eight position players returning, we are expecting to improve our fielding significantly.” – Mike Consiglio, head coach
