Assistant Director, Canada

On Friday, March 14th, the Prep Baseball Alberta staff hosted it's third Scout Day of the year with the St. Joseph Academy Scout Day hosted on campus at St. Joseph High School in Red Deer, Alberta. This event featured roughly 35 players within the St. Joe's program in the 2025 - 2030 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players, as well as collect updated metrics via our tech partners TrackMan.

Today we'll start our deep dive into the data collected at this event within this Statistical Analysis story as we take a look at the top TrackMan data, positional metrics and 60-yard times.
