Through the years we have seen a countless number of preparatory baseball players move forward to play at various and high profile collegiate programs. Many of which were able to continue their diamond exploits by signing on with professional organizations at the Major League, Minor League and Independent League levels.

New England Baseball Journal has compiled a list of past and present New England prep students who have played, or are currently playing, organized baseball. This group also includes past students who have made contributions in organized baseball in some capacity.

If we have omitted anyone from this list, kindly let us know and we will add them.

The opportunity to play and/or work in professional baseball is certainly considered an honor and privilege. Yet, these talented individuals below, who have entered this field, demonstrates an undefined, determined will in reaching such a level. Certainly the various prep schools who helped plant the seeds for these individuals in becoming part of baseball heritage, need to be recognized for their accomplishments and guidance.
