2023 CHSAA Season Preview: Falcon HS

The Colorado high school season is nearing quickly, and we're here to cover it. Over the next several weeks, leading up to opening day, we'll publish our team previews ahead of the 2023 spring season, touching on programs spanning all state classifications, leading into a countdown through the official PBR Colorado Preseason Power 25 Rankings.

Team: Falcon
League: Colorado Springs Metro North
2022 Record: 18-7 / 9-1 Conference
Classification: 4A
Head Coach: Brandon Stegman
Years at the Helm: 4

OUTLOOK:

 This is a very deep roster returning for the Falcons in 2023 as they look to win their conference for the 3rd straight year. The Falcon program aims to crack the top 8 in 4A by the end of this season, and they have a plethora of solid left-handed pitchers to help keep them afloat. If this younger group can continue to produce, it could be another successful year for the Falcons.
