2024 Baseball Preview

After sharing the 2023 division title, Point Beach and St. Rose will battle it out for the Class B Central championship again in 2024.

Pitching is the name of the game in the preseason Shore 16 and for the second straight year, the non-public teams of the Shore are leading the field to open the season.

Ranney graduated most of its vaunted roster of the past two seasons. Is there an opening for a surprise champion in the Class B North race?

CBA has a young team, but a hammer on the mound that will make the Colts the favorite in an always-loaded Class A North division.

The best 2023 division race in the Shore Conference could be even better in 204, with Toms River East joining Southern, Brick Memorial and Jackson Memorial in the battle for A South.

Donovan Catholic has a star to replace, but might be even better on the mound. Can an intriguing group of public schools push the Griffins out of the top spot in B South?

As Red Bank Catholic and Rumson get set to battle for multiple titles again, the rest of the Class A Central field has quietly closed the gap.

As the 2024 baseball season approaches, catch up with the top returning players in the Shore Conference.
