As we continue to expand and grow in the Commonwealth and beyond, new things are implemented. In the spring of 2024, our staff will host the biggest set of joined scrimmages in the state. There will be two sets of the Prep Baseball First Pitch scrimmages, with the first set highlighting twelve teams from across the Commonwealth on March 2nd in the Richmond area, and the second set highlighting six teams.
These scrimmages will have a host school that will bring on two other teams for three, five-inning scrimmages. Each team will play a total of ten innings that day versus other regional and state powers.
Below we will list the teams from the second session, along with their head coach, 2023 record, and some potential returners that could be impact players in 2024.
