With 2023 behind us, our staff has dedicated some time to reflect on the top statistical performers that we saw at our events last year. We'll be shining some light on Kansas natives who put up loud numbers in 2023, showcasing our staff their tools at PBR Kansas events.

These leaderboards were compiled solely based on numbers at our state events, including Preseason IDs, Scout Days, Top Prospect Games, Future Games, and the inaugural All-American Game, too.
