On Sunday, March 17^th, PBR Minnesota is headed to Braemar Field in Edina to host one of the biggest showcases of the year; the PBR MN Preseason All-State. This invite only event, exclusive to 2020 grads, will spotlight one of the deeper classes the state of Minnesota and surrounding region has seen in years. 

Over 300 players have made college commits who participated in this event over the last four years and this year’s roster looks to add exponentially to that total once the recruitment of the 2020 class is complete. 

Today we are going to spotlight the players who have accrued the highest statistical performances at the PBR MN Preseason All-State, going all the way back to our initial event in 2015, along with the Top 5 players in each statistical category we test at the event. Will any event records be broken this weekend?

Follow along throughout the event on both Twitter (@PBRMinnesota) and Instagram (PBRMinnesota) as we will be updating you live throughout the entire event; as well as on Monday when we will release full stats from the event and our Instant Analysis.
