The inaugural PBR Limited Series tournament kicks off this Friday (June 28th) with eight teams participating in a round robin format over the course of three days at McGill Field on the campus of Lebanon Valley College. 

Four 15U teams get tournament action started, with each playing two games on Friday. The 15U teams will wrap up play Saturday morning with 16U teams playing a single game Saturday afternoon and a pair of games each on Sunday.

Today we preview the rosters and a handful of the talented prospects from each team scheduled to participate at the 16U level. A live scout blog will run each day of the tournament with scouting notes and scoring updates for all 12 games in the tournament.

Flood City Elite, Baseball And Softball Elite Travel - Flood City Elite Clipart (1000x767), Png DownloadOne of the most respected travel programs in the state will bring a roster that already sports three prospects that have announced college commitments in 2021 RHP/SS Caleb Gampe (South Carolina), 2021 C Hunter Klotz (Kent State), 2021 OF/RHP Nathan Polo (Pennsylvania).

College coaches will still have plenty to look at as 2021 1B/RHP Brendon Bair has reportedly recently been up to 92 mph on the bump, 2021 SS/RHP Aidan Major has also impressed early this summer with an advanced hit tool while also sitting in the mid-80s off the mound. 

2021 RHP/1B Daniel Kanagy and 2021 C Nick Plank both put up impressive numbers during the spring and will also be prospects on this roster that should draw interest.
