ABOUT

The 2026 spring high school baseball season will be the eighth in which Prep Baseball South Carolina is working to rank the top 25 teams in the state, regardless of classification.  Over 200 high school teams in the state - let the debate begin as to who are the best.

We'll discuss our process in determining this order, but we feel like we're publishing a thoughtful and thorough list of the state's best programs this season, thanks to the Prep Baseball South Carolina staff that spans the state. Throughout the spring, our scouting staff will be working to see games, teams, and players each day, from the mountains to the beach.

Here's our latest edition of the South Carolina Power 25, updated for the preseason of the 2026 Season:
