Moss Bluff, LA - On Tuesday, May 27, 2025, the Prep Baseball Louisiana staff traveled to the Sam Houston High School, to host our first event of the summer, which featured prospects from the 2026-2028 classes.  Each participant went through a pro-style workout that consisted of running a laser-timed 60 yard dash using Vald Performance, defensive evaluations, and batting practice using Trackman Baseball and Blast Motion.  Pitchers finished the day off by throwing a bullpen with Trackman Baseball to receive all of their data and metrics.  Below, we take a look at the top Trackman hitting metrics and data from Tuesday's event.
