The Prairieland IV teams have now been chosen!
The draft for Prairieland IV which will be held April 13 in Springfield, Illinois was a little unique. In three rounds, each participant chose:
- a pitching staff
- an infield
- an outfield/catcher
Each “squad” could be drafted from a different franchise or year. The draft was done via email.
This is how it all shook out.
