Preseason All-State South: Pitchers Preview
January 19, 2023
The 2023 winter showcase season is upon us with the Preseason All-State South taking off this Sunday in the Charlotte suburb of Waxhaw, NC. The Preseason All-State South will feature approximately 40 players from the state, going through a full workout with PBR Scouts. Each player will update their stats, analytics, and video, showcasing their gains from the off-season, as they continue to get ready for the spring.
As we enter the 5th year of the Preseason All-State event in North Carolina it is obvious this event has become a must-see for college coaches and pro scouts. While most schools are not allowed on the road yet, per NCAA rules, they are able to follow each event, seeing trusted stats and video as the events conclude. From the past 4 years, PBR of North Carolina has seen 189 player commit to play college baseball. With the rosters being built for the 4 Preseason All-State events in 2023, that number is only going to continue to climb.
