PBR Iowa 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.

2021 OUTLOOK:
“I would say a strength is returning 6 everyday starters from a 2A Semi-Finalist last season.  That experience should help us a lot this year, but we lost some very good seniors that did an awful lot for us last summer.  A big concern for us will be developing depth in our pitching staff this summer.  We’ve been very fortunate for the past few seasons to have a strong and deep pitching rotation that has carried us.  We have a lot of holes to fill but a lot of young talent, especially in our 8th grade class, that can hopefully do just that.” Head Coach
