The Kansas high school baseball kicked off on March 20th with opening day for regular season action under KSHSAA regulations. Leading up to opening day, we published our team previews ahead of the 2025 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, counting down to the official Prep Baseball Kansas Preseason Power 25 Rankings. Check them all out HERE

Our scouts have been out and about covering the 2025 season, publishing scout notes and additional in-season content along the way, like Power 25 updates, Player of the Week awards, and weekly top performers included inside Diamond Notes.

During the season, you can catch all the action by following us on Twitter @PrepBaseballKS. 

While much of the initial lists are weighted on previous performances, prospects, and projections, updates will be inherently tied to the production on the field. Simply put: wins, level of competition, and prospects matter. A human element to the list will still provide important information on the nuances and intricacies that the season bestows. Whether it is a close loss in a rivalry game, a five-game in three days gauntlet, or a bout of sickness that depletes a lineup, you can count on Prep Baseball to critically examine the playing field at all times. It never fails that there are huge surprises in both directions as the season gets underway and that's why play the games. We have already seen some exciting movement in the Power 25.
