As we close the book on 2025 and turn our attention toward a new year, we continue our annual tradition of spotlighting the Top-Ten Most Viewed Profiles from the past calendar year. Using data gathered through Google Analytics, our staff has compiled a list of the 10 prospects whose Prep Baseball profiles generated the most traffic in 2025. Many of the players featured delivered standout performances at various Prep Baseball events throughout the year, helping elevate their visibility and interest.

Beginning December 15th, we’ll count down the list from No. 10 to No. 1, with the top spot being revealed on December 31st. 

Kicking off the list at No. 10 is Battle Ground infielder Cooper McGowan. The Future Games attendee is a top-ten ranked player in Washington's '27 class and put together an impressive showing in Georgia, eventually committing to Oregon State University this Fall. Below is a complete breakdown of McGowan's profile.
