The winter schedule has come to a close as players are now beginning to get their season's underway. The 2025 preseason showcase schedule featured the first-ever Hawaii Preseason Invitational which was an eight-team tournament to open up the year that saw all positional players run through a pro-style workout alongside our tech partners, while we also collected updated TrackMan pitching data on all arms during gameplay.

Our staff had eyes on over 100 players and with the season finally here, there is still a ton of quality uncommitted talent still on the board in Hawaii's senior class. Over the next couple weeks, our staff will begin highlighting some of these names who need to be on the radar of college coaches looking to roundout their 2025 class.

We continue our Top Uncommitted Senior Spotlight Series with '25 SS/RHP Noah Bernal of Pearl City HS. Bernal impressed at the Hawaii Preseason Invitational as he flashed his arm strength across the diamond at 87mph, ran a 6.98 60-yard dash and posted a peak exit velocity of 88.2mph.
