Class of 2025 Rankings | Fall Update


Brett Harrison
West Coast Supervisor

 

This Senior Class has shaped up to be one of our deepest in recent year with Division 1 talent well beyond the Top 10 prospects in the state. This 2025 Class has seen more "late bloomer" type prospects see their game take shape over the past year than almost all of our previous years in Nevada with Prep Baseball. Heavy Covid restrictions during the vital years as players were heading into High School halted the growth of almost all players within the state, but this resilient class has stood tall throughout with 20+ college commitment (and counting) along with multiple players we expect to be drumming up significant MLB Draft attention this upcoming Spring, holding down the top spots in our last Rankings Update of 2024. 

In recent years, Nevada has ranked among the top states in the country in high school prospects signing a $1,000,000+ Signing Bonus (4) and is highlighted in a recent story from Prep Baseball Vice President, Scouting, Shooter Hunt. Story below..

Now, we dive into these 2025 Rankings that saw minimal movement throuhgout, but did see a handful of players climb up not only the Top 10, but make their way up the Rankings outside the Top 10. This week we will continue to highlight the top prospect in the Silver State with the Ranking Risers as well as the Top 10 Uncommitted Prospects that are still on the board. Stay tuned as we continue to push our 2025 Class beyond this week to help each Uncommitted player find a college home as we approach the upcoming Spring Season.

*We are constantly on the lookout for commitments from prospects throughout the entire 2025 class.  If we have missed one please feel free to reach out so we can get that added to the database.
