Over 70 teams will head to Southwest Florida as the Prospect Wire National Championships will be underway at the southern homes of the Atlanta Braves & Tampa Bay Rays Spring Training Complexes.

This event looks to be loaded with talent as we welcome over 60 committed players while others are going to look to try to capture the attention of the college coaches in attendance. Be on the look for guys like Jace Estes (FSU Commit) of NLB American & TJ Socarras (Pitt Commit) of Havana Bananas who have a history of tearing up PW events over their HS careers.
