Members of Team Pennsylvania Making Early Season Impact


Greg Williams
Pennsylvania Director of Scouting

Erratic weather has played havoc with schedules during the first 10 days of the high school season. Most teams have managed to play one or two games while others have struggled to begin their schedule.  Games were once again postponed statewide on Monday due to the latest round of poor weather.

With no game action to report on from yesterday, today we take a look at some early season results for members of the 2018 Team Pennsylvania roster.  The current roster for this year's PBR Future Games and will be completed following the Western PA and Eastern PA Top Prospect Games in June. Team Pennsylvania will make the trek to Indianapolis the first week of August to participate with top prospects from across the country. This year's roster is currently comprised of 11 sophomores and one freshman.  Following is a look at some of the top performances by members of Team Pennsylvania in the early stages of the spring.
