Pearl City, HI - The Hawaii Rising Stars ID (March 29) gave us an early look at some of the top emerging talent in the 2030 and 2031 classes, with over 90 prospects in attendance. A masssive thank you to the Pearl City staff for hosting us at their amazing facility.
With many players making their first appearance on a Prep Baseball stage, the event provided valuable insight into projectable frames, developing skill sets, and overall athleticism. Serving as an important early checkpoint, this event establishes a baseline for future evaluation as these young prospects continue to progress and refine their tools. Performances from this event will play a key role in identifying players to follow as they work toward earning spots at future invite-only events, including the Junior Future Games.
