Prep Baseball Kansas Staff

The Kansas high school baseball season kicks off on Mar. 20, opening day for regular season action under KSHSAA 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 Kansas 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:

Coach’s Insight: “We will play great team defense, minimizing mental mistakes. We will be tough at the plate, having great at bats, doing whatever it takes to move and score runners. We will have several players who came up in spot roles, but don't quite have that varsity game experience. We will need to grow up quickly and play with confidence if we are going to have success this year.” – Kanon Hoover, head coach
