PBR Minnesota 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.

PBR: Why did you choose the school you did?

 

Rinzel: I chose Mizzou because I loved the school, coaching staff, facilities and the family environment of the program.  

PBR: What other schools were you considering?

Rinzel: My top three came down to Mizzou, Vanderbilt, and Xavier.

PBR: Where did the coaching staff first see you? How did your relationship develop with him?

Rinzel: Nashville and Georgia tournaments.  We had phone conversations for a few weeks then I went to visit the school.

PBR: Do you feel relieved now that the process is over and you can just focus on baseball and not deal with everything that goes into picking a school?

Rinzel: Yes.  It is nice to focus on baseball and not worry about the recruiting process.

PBR: Was there one deciding factor that put your choice over the top?

Rinzel: Coaching staff at Mizzou and the culture that coach Bieser has established.

PBR: Who has helped you the most to get to where you are today?

Rinzel: My parents have been the most influential.  Justin Musil, Andy Judkins and everyone at Starters helped me navigate the recruiting process and were instrumental in my training.  

PBR: What were your expectations about the recruiting process? Was it easy/difficult?

Rinzel: I wasn’t really sure what to expect.  I would say it was stressful at times but having a good support system helped make it easier.  

PBR: What plans does the coaching staff have in store for you in your freshman season?

Rinzel: Arrive on campus, work hard and compete for playing time.  

PBR: What is your most memorable baseball moment to date?

Rinzel: My most memorable moments have been the friendships I have made playing with Holy Family Catholic High School, Starters and Canes American club teams.   Our 14AAA team winning state was a highlight of my youth playing days.

PBR: Who is the best player that you have competed against?

Rinzel: This past fall, I had the opportunity to play with and against some of the top competition in the nation of which several will be high MLB draft picks.
