With 2020 finally in the rear view we turn our attention to what we all hope will be an opportunity this spring for all players to return to playing high school baseball. Today we continue our annual series of stories entitled "Spring Forward" where we highlight some of the top players, programs, and conferences across a variety of categories for the upcoming 2021 season.
Today we turn our attention to 10 right handers from Western VA. The western part of the state has some big time arms and this list more than solidifies that belief. Be sure to follow our Spring Forward series as we continue to highlight some of the top players, programs, and conferences through a variety of categories in the weeks to come.
