OK Spring Preview: Yukon Millers

The Oklahoma high school baseball season kicks off on March 2nd, opening day for regular season action under Ossaa regulations. Over the next several weeks, leading up to opening day, we’ll be publishing our team previews ahead of the 2020 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, leading into a countdown through the official PBR Oklahoma Preseason Power 25 Rankings.

Perennially, 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.

If you would like your team covered, please have your head coach email us at [email protected]

OUTLOOK

The Youkon Millers will no doubt be a 6A state tournament contender. They will return a core group of pitchers and hitters, but they will need them to step up and the newcomers to rise to help fill key roles left by last year’s graduating class, especially on the mound.
