Prep Baseball Report Nebraska

PBR Nebraska 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.

2018 OUTLOOK

"This season we will be successful if we support one another and come together as a team and as a baseball community. If we are able to do the the small things correctly I believe it will lead to big success for us. We return 13 players with Varsity experience and expecting them to take steps forward in development as well as contributions from other players in our program. If we all work for one goal as a team and a community, we should have a successful season." Head Coach Kyle Parker
