Jackson Summer ID - Session II: Pitcher Reports


Prep Baseball Mississippi Staff

CLINTON, MS — The Jackson Summer ID - Session II was held on Tuesday, July 1st at Clinton High School that featured top talent from the 2026-2030 classes. Players went through a pro-style workout with TrackMan, Blast Motion, and VALD Performance tech, while pitchers threw in a bullpen setting and were able to get data and metrics on our TrackMan unit.

Some prospects built on past showings, while others made strong first impressions.

We conclude our post-event coverage with a look at the scouting reports on all pitchers who attended the event.
