July 2, 2025
ALBERTVILLE, AL – The 2025 Yellowhammer State Games took place on Tuesday, June 17th and Wednesday, June 18th at Sand Mountain Park in Albertville, AL. This invite-only event brought together nearly 200 of the top high school prospects in Alabama from the 2026-2030 graduating classes. Over the course of two days, players participated in an extended pro-style workout featuring batting practice tracked by Trackman, 60-yard dash testing using VALD Performance, and more. Pitchers had the opportunity to compete in simulated innings during gameplay, capturing key metrics such as velocity, spin rate, and movement data via Trackman.
A few statistical breakdowns from the premier event of the summer:
- 38 60-yard dashes under 7.00
