PBR Nebraska 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.

 2023 OUTLOOK:

"Losing 11 seniors will hurt the experience of the team. The Big 3 of Sommers, Hatcher, and Thiele in the top of the batting order will definitely help to score runs. The pitching staff will be talented with some new faces. 4th place finish last spring and the American Legion World Series birth will help the Jr. Jays play in big games this spring" - Pat Mooney, Head Coach
