Prep Baseball Report Kansas
As we prepare for our 2014 high school preseason coverage we are going to take a quick glance at teams from across the state.
Team: Great Bend
Nickname: Panthers
Class: 5A
League: Western Athletic Conference
Head Coach: Randy Beck
Years as Head Coach at School: 5
2013 Overall Record: 15-6
2013 League Record: 5-3

TOP PLAYERS (Listed Alphabetically)
Bryce Beck, RHP/SS, Class of 2014 -1st Team All-Western Athletic Conference
Tristan Hall, RHP/1B, Class of 2014 – 1st Team All-Western Athletic Conference
Dillon Reiser, OF, Class of 2014
Shade Wondra, IF, Class of 2015
Logan Zecha, OF, Class of 2014
OUTLOOK:
Coming off a 15-6 season in which they finished tied for first place in the Western Athletic Conference; Great Bend has several key players to replace. They will rely heavily this spring on two proven seniors in 1st Team All-League performers right-handed pitcher/shortstop Bryce Beck and right-handed pitcher/first baseman Tristan Hall. Beck and Hall can’t do it alone, so the Panthers will need strong performances from the other returners and new faces will be called on to step up as well if they are to return to the top of the league standings.
