With the 2017 spring season right around the corner, PBR North Carolina is anticipating a great spring.  This is the first year of coverage for PBR during the high school season.  In the coming weeks and months, PBR will report on games, players, conference races and the state tournament.  It is the aim of PBR North Carolina to become your #1 source for high school baseball.

PBR worked to reach out to every team in the state.  A full team preview will be released on every team that filled out the preseason questionnaire sent by PBR.  If you are a coach and haven't filled out your 2017 Team Preview – CLICK HERE

TEAM PREVIEW

Cedar Ridge HS

Coach                                      Jamie Athas

Classification                          3A

Conference Name                   Big Eight

 

2016 Stats

Conference Finish                   6th

 

2017 Outlook 

# of Returning Starters           6

What to Watch For:
A disappointing 2016 has a motivated bunch ready to roll in 2017.  Lots of experience as only 2 starters were lost, with depth on the mound and in the field.  Need to find a couple of front end arms to lead the way and Coach  Athas will have the Red Wolves back in the mix.
