2026 Iowa High School Team Preview: Albia
April 13, 2026
The 2026 high school baseball season is quickly approaching and as usual, excitement is building throughout Iowa. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the upcoming season and, as is the case each year, there are some very talented players and teams across Iowa.
Teams across the state have goals and aspirations to finish their seasons in Carroll or Cedar Rapids at the IHSAA 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A State Tournaments, but there is plenty of work to be done before that becomes reality. We hope to shine a spotlight on all teams across the state as we preview individual teams across Iowa.
Please keep checking back throughout the season as we will be your one-stop shop for everything related to high school baseball across the state.
Each week we will be releasing our Diamond Notes, covering all the bases across the state of Iowa.

TEAM OUTLOOK
“We feel really good about the direction of this group heading into the 2026 season. Last summer, our guys showed they could battle through adversity — we were in a lot of tight games, and finally breaking through in close contests was a turning point for this team. That experience-built confidence, and you could see our hitters start to see the ball well and deliver in big moments.” – Brad DeMoss, head coach
