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.

Coach’s Insight: “[Our strengths are] leadership throughout the players, it is a player lead program. The culture and maturity in the locker room. Pitching from the starters all the way to the end of the bullpen. The aggressiveness at the plate and on the base paths. Nothing is to big for this team, they treat every game the same and play the right way. Making sure to eliminate mental and physical mistakes [is important]. The aggressiveness of the team can create hesitation at points but making sure to maintain the same mindset through every inning will help eliminate these mistakes. ” – Rick Sabath, head coach
