The sixth annual Minority Prospects HBCU All-Star Game is set to return to Charlotte, North Carolina this weekend, bringing together elite baseball and softball talent from across the HBCU landscape for what has become one of the premier showcases in Black college athletics.

Scheduled for Friday, June 5, and Saturday, June 6, the event will spotlight standout student-athletes competing in front of professional scouts and evaluators from Major League Baseball organizations and other professional leagues.
