2026 Wichita Summer ID/Rising Stars ID: Hitter's Data Dive

June 30, 2026
Eliott Wilk
Central Region Operations Director

On Tuesday, June 23rd, the Prep Baseball Kansas staff hosted Wichita Summer ID/Rising Stars ID at Wichita State Unversity's Eck Stadium in Wichita, KS. This year’s event hosted 42 prospects who participated in the showcase, and we’ve been spending the week highlighting the top performers among them. 

Earlier this week, we assembled leaderboards of the more traditional stat categories inside Monday'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.
