PBR Ontario Director of Scouting

From now until the start of the 2015 season, Prep Baseball Report Ontario will bring you in-depth team previews throughout the entire state. If your coach has not filled out the survey please have him do so through this link.

Along with the team previews, the 2015 Team Rankings will be releasing sometime late February and we hope to bring a Q&A session to discuss the rankings.

Also, we will be releasing the preseason All Ontario Teams sometime in early March.

General Notes:


The Knights will look to improve on their record from last year and compete for the Fergie Jenkins League title in 2015. With plenty of players returning from last year, the Knights should have a tight knit group with lots of team chemistry to build on. A mix of size and speed, as well as pitching depth will be the keys to a successful year for the team from Ottawa.

The Knights will be in Fort Pierce Florida this March break for spring training action as well as their scout day on Feb.15th at Lawnwood Sports Complex, 1302 Virginia ave. Ft.Pierce Florida.

Coach Bob Guy looks to instill a positive and winning atmosphere with his team, and help his players get the attention they deserve to advance to the next level.
