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.

What to Watch For

Coming off a run to the Quarterfinals in 2016, the Trojans return their pitching staff.  They also return 5 from a starting lineup that won 24 games.  Coach Spivey is use to creating a lot of havoc on the bases but this club may need to find other ways to get their runs.
