2025 Kansas Summer Rewind: Peak Vertical Jump


Prep Baseball Kansas Staff

Now that the summer season has come to a close, our Prep Baseball Kansas staff is taking time to look back on some of the impressive numbers put up by prospects at events across the state. 

Over three months, our staff got a chance to see hundreds of high-level talent from all parts of the state, and now we’ll break down the best of the best across a wide range of categories. We’ll look at everything from spin rates to exit velocities and all the stats in between. 

These lists will include all the events from our summer circuit, ranging from Summer IDs, to Team Scout Days, to State Games. 

To continue the series, we’ll be looking at the best vertical jumps of the summer.
