Program Preview: Reno
February 26, 2024
The 2024 Nevada high school baseball season is quickly approaching and, as usual, excitement is abound throughout the state. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the upcoming season and, as is the case each year, there are some very talented players and teams across Nevada.
Questionnaires were sent out to all Nevada High School coaches to provide insight on their programs. We hope to familiarize our readers with many of the teams across the state as we preview individual teams across Nevada. We will take you right up to first pitch this season with these team previews, eventually releasing our Preseason Top 10 Team Rankings that’ll carry us into the opening week of action.
Please keep checking back throughout the season as we will be your one-stop shop for everything related to high school baseball across the state. Each week we will be releasing our weekly Top 10 Team Rankings.
