Fri January 20, 2023
We are just a few short weeks out from the kick off of the Junior College season with the Manny Guerra Classic set to begin on Friday, January 27. The College of Southern Nevada has proven themselves as one of the top Junior College programs in the country over the past two decades and this years group looks to continue carrying that torch into the 2023 campaign, the 20 year anniversary of the 2003 National Championship run.
This years squad features an exciting group on both sides of the ball with Uncommitted talent still in search of a four year home as well as a few local players who bounced back to the Coyotes at the semester that we expect to add depth to a pitching staff that showed their stuff at the PBR x CSN Scout Day this past Fall.
Metrics collected at the PBR x College of Southern Nevada available HERE
Next, we continue our Program Preview of the College of Southern Nevada with the Position Player Preview.
