The annual Preseason All-State Showcase took place this past weekend at Champions Baseball Academy in Nicholasville. The event was split into two sessions, one for Class of 2022-2023 players on Saturday, February 8, and one for Class of 2020-2021 players on Sunday, February 9. The event afforded nearly 160 players the opportunity to showcase their abilities in the premier preseason event in front of the PBR Kentucky staff, college coaches, and pro scouts in attendance.
All player profiles have been updated with event stats. Player videos from the event are currently being edited and will be placed in player profiles as they are ready.
We will have much more to come on this event.
