Verrado High School Scout Day: Data Dive
October 24, 2025
Verrado HS — Last week, Prep Baseball Arizona hosted the Verrado High School Scout Day, spotlighting 25 prospects from the Verrado program. The event provided players an opportunity to update their measurable data and showcase their offseason development ahead of the upcoming spring.
The workout featured VALD-timed 60-yard dashes with splits, TrackMan-verified batting practice, positional evaluations with velocities, and TrackMan pitching metrics collected during bullpens.
Our post-event coverage from the Verrado Scout Day kicks off with a breakdown of the top overall data recorded during the event.

VALD PERFORMANCE
TOP 60-YARD DASH
Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. We implemented three timing gates at the 10- and 30-yard splits, to capture athletes’ quickness, explosiveness and reaction time. From there, we will calculate an athlete’s top-end speed in miles per hour. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.
