On Saturday, September 9th, the Prep Baseball Utah staff hosted it's second Scout Day of the year with the RA Baseball Academy Scout Day at Juan Diego Catholic High School in Draper, Utah. This event featured 23 prospects within the organization from the 2025 - 2028 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players in attendance.
