2025 South Dakota High School Team Preview: Elk Point-Jefferson
March 31, 2025
Prep Baseball Dakotas strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across North and South Dakota. Prep Baseball is the number one resource for high school baseball in each state that we cover through various events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work together, creating each state's most potent high school baseball promotion source. While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.
As we prepare for the upcoming 2025 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state of South Dakota.

COACHES THOUGHTS
”We have a solid core returning and some underclassmen who made an impact as 8th graders and freshmen last season. We will need our upper classmen to be solid and our younger players to continue on their growth trajectory. Our region is always a meat grinder and this year will be no different. I think we can get over the hump and play in a state tournament if we play the way we are capable.”
- John Gale, Head Coach
