December 23, 2014

Iowa State Director
To close out the year of 2014, we look back at our eight PBR Iowa events to choose the "best of the best" in numerous categories for players who attended PBR Iowa events.
We would like to thank all who participated in the Underclass Prospect Games, Class of 2015 Prospect Games, Missouri Valley Open Showcase, Western Iowa Prospect I.D. Showcase, IA Fall Underclass Showcase, IA Fall Unsigned Senior Showcase, and the Quad City Open. They were great opportunities for prospects to be put on college radars. Many players impressed during their individual workouts at the showcases.
