2026 Minnesota High School Preview: Sartell


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’re coming off a very successful season and feel great about having half of our offensive production back in the lineup, but the key to this spring will be how quickly our younger players can step up to replace the significant number of innings we lost with our senior class. It might take us a little time to really hit our stride since several of our key guys will be finishing up on the basketball court and missing the first three weeks of practice, but the talent is there to be a very dangerous team by May. We just need to stay patient early on as our multi-sport athletes transition back to the diamond and our new arms find their rhythm on the mound. Once we have the full roster together and some game experience under our belt, I expect this group to compete at a high level just like we did a year ago.” – Jerome Nemanich, head coach
