The Kansas high school season is nearing quickly, and we're here to cover it. Over the next several weeks, leading up to opening day, we’ll be publishing our team previews ahead of the 2023 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, leading into a countdown through the official PBR Kansas Preseason Power 20 Rankings.

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.

 

Team: Arkansas City Bulldogs
League: Ark Valley Chisolm Trail Division 2
2022 Record: 8-13
Classification: 5A
Head Coach: Aaron Bucher
Years at the Helm: 23

OUTLOOK

Experience is going to play a big role in this upcoming season for the Bulldogs, as they have 7 starters returning to the lineup. This experience will be very important down the stretch for Arkansas City as they compete in their league.

Finding consistency on the mound is where the Bulldogs may struggle the most. They will need to find some arms that they can rely on on big situations in order for them to be successful.
