2026 Minnesota High School Preview: Randolph


Andy Judkins
State Director, Prep Baseball Minnesota

The 2026 high school baseball season is quickly approaching and as usual, excitement is building throughout Minnesota. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the upcoming season and, as is the case each year, there is no shortage of talented players and teams across the land of 10,000 lakes.

Prep Baseball Minnesota strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across the state. Prep Baseball is the number one resource for high school baseball in each state that we cover through various events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work together, creating each state's most potent high school baseball promotion source. While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.

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 Player of the week and Diamond Notes, covering all the bases across the state of Minnesota.

TEAM OUTLOOK

“We enter the season as the defending Gopher Conference champions and return a strong, experienced core. We bring back three of our four top hitters, two of our three starting pitchers, and six starters overall. With a senior-heavy roster, our experience and leadership should allow us to compete in every game.
Pitching and defense will be key focal points. Replacing Kyle Peine, the 2024 Gopher Conference Player of the Year, will be a challenge, but we have good pitching depth and several players ready for opportunities. Defensively, improvement is a priority after too many errors last season.
We believe we have a chance to defend our conference title, while recognizing the Gopher Conference is filled with talented teams and young players. We’re excited for the challenge and the season ahead.” – Chris Stanton, head coach
