JSerra HS is No. 1 in Times' preseason top 25 prep baseball rankings
Two Hands Pro has worked with many of California's top programs, such as Harvard- Westlake, Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park and other notables not on this list such a Oak Park HS just up the road from both Harvard-Westlake and Thousand Oaks. The energy we brought to both programs definitetly stuck with the guys!! I wonder how many players from these teams actually have the Two Hands Pro, I believe it is a good handful!
Have a look at the top 25 and you be the judge... Who will live up to the hype and who will fall by the waist side?
