2026 Arkansas Top Prospect Games: Hitter's Data Dive


Mikel Howell
Arkansas Asst. Director

On Wednesday, July 1st, the Prep Baseball Arkansas staff hosted our Arkansas Top Prospect Games at the University of Arkansas' Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville, AR. This year’s event hosted 67 prospects who participated in the showcase, and we'll begin highlighting the top performers among them. 

Today, we’ll be highlighting leaders from the traditional stat categories measured at the event. We’ll continue to dive deeper into the data throughout the rest of the week as well, so be on the lookout for more analysis stemming from this showcase.

Earlier this week, we assembled leaderboards of the more traditional stat categories inside Wednesday's Statistical Leaderboards, which you can view here.

Today, we’ll be diving deeper into all of the data that we collected at the event with the help of our partners at VALD Performance, TrackMan, Blast Motion, and Vizual Edge, using the valuable state-of-the-art technologies that they provide at Prep Baseball showcases.

Here’s a look at the position players who recorded some of the most impressive metrics across these many categories.
