GREELEY, CO-- April 11, 2021 PBR Colorado finally held the Colorado Preseason All State Games after having to postpone due to 27 inches of snow on our original date. The event was worth the wait. This event was open to all classifications. Colorado’s 2021’s - 2024s had an opportunity to put their name on the radar for collegiate recruiting, create or update a PBR profile. Our morning session contained full evaluations of position players and the afternoon highlighted our pitchers in a live games. Top Players from this event will have opportunities to be invited to future invite-only events such as the PBR Future and Junior Future Games and our new PBR West Coast Games.
