TEAM HAWAII — 2026 FUTURE GAMES PREVIEW
A look at the top prospects representing the islands in the Class of 2028.
Hawaii’s 2028 class has quickly become one of the more intriguing groups in the region, with impact talent across the diamond and several names already gaining national attention. Below is a look at the prospects set to represent the islands at the 2026 Future Games.
This year’s Team Hawaii roster also gets a boost from a few nationally ranked out-of-state prospects who will join the group at the Future Games.
As highlighted last fall by Vice President, Scouting of Prep Baseball Shooter Hunt, this class is becoming a must-follow group for college coaches heading into the Future Games.
Players listed in alphabetical order by last name. Player videos available in each dropdown, as well as extended information on each player profile.
2028 class in @PrepBaseballHI looks like must-book travel for a lot of college coaches next summer…
