2025 AAA Team Preview: Greenland Pirates


Prep Baseball Arkansas Staff

The Arkansas high school baseball season kicks off on Mar. 3, opening day for regular season action under AAA regulations. Leading up to opening day, we’ll be publishing our team previews ahead of the 2025 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, counting down to the official Prep Baseball Arkansas Preseason Power 25 Rankings.

Perennially, we’ve submitted a preseason questionnaire to high school head coaches across the entire state. Their responses have been flooding in and we’re using the detailed insight they’ve provided in our team-by-team preseason analysis.

Our 2025 preseason coverage continues today.

Key Players Lost:

None, we return every starter from last season

Coach’s Insight: “Our team strengths this season will be our Lineup and our depth on the mound. We return our entire order from last year and we expect the production to increase from those guys this season. On the mound we return every pitcher from last season and I feel good about several of our arms having the ability to go out and get our team quality innings throughout the year. Our unknowns for this season will be moving to a new conference and classification as well as team speed. Moving to class 3A will be a different look from the previous two years but we look forward to the challenge that this year presents. ” – Jordan Larkan , head coach
