PBR Program Preview: Capital Eagles
January 31, 2023
The 2023 High School Season is quickly approaching and as usual, our staff is excited for the upcoming Spring season. Programs across the state have goals and aspirations to finish the year in to lift the State Championship trophy, but there is plenty of work to be done before that becomes a reality. We hope to familiarize our readers with many of the teams and players across the state, as we preview many of the great programs throughout Idaho. We will take you right up to the first pitch of this season with these team previews and we'll continue providing coverage throughout the Spring.
*Please note that all information is based on team preview questionnaires that were sent out and returned by the participating high school coaches. If you did not receive a questionnaire and would like to fill one out, please send an email to [email protected].
