Prep Baseball Report

Nebraska Daily Roundup: Thursday, April 2nd


Pascal Paul
State Director, Prep Baseball Nebraska

The 2026 high school baseball season is underway and, as usual, excitement is present throughout Nebraska. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the season and, as is the case each year, there are some very talented players and teams across the Cornhusker State.

Teams across the state have goals and aspirations to finish their seasons at Werner Park at the NSAA championship games, but there is plenty of work to be done before that becomes reality. We hope to shine a spotlight on all teams across the state as we preview individual teams across Nebraska. 

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 Power Rankings, Scout Blog, Diamond Notes, and Player of The Week, covering all the bases across the state of Nebraska. 

NOTE: All scores listed above were provided by MaxPreps. Games not included were either not listed on MaxPreps or did not have a reported final score at the time of publication.
