Team Carolina Summer ID: Wilmington - Event Recap

Prep Baseball was in Wilmington, NC on June 3rd for the Team Carolina Summer ID, held at South Brunswick High School. These events serve as a crucial evaluation platform, giving players an opportunity to update their Prep Baseball profile with verified stats, advanced analytics, video, and scout notes — all gathered during a pro-style workout.

Athletes participating in a Summer ID also become eligible for future invitations to Team Carolina's premier events, including the Future Games, Super Sophomore Games, and Top Prospect Games. These invite-only showcases feature the top talent from across North Carolina, drawing attention from college coaches and professional scouts nationwide.


Workout Overview

The day began with laser-timed 60-yard dashes using the VALD timing system, which tracked athletes' sprint metrics at the 10-yard, 30-yard, and 60-yard marks. The system also provided speed-based insights into acceleration and top-end run performance.

Batting practice followed, with players taking live rounds while TrackMan recorded exit velocity, launch angle, and distance. BLAST Motion sensors captured pre-contact swing metrics, offering deeper analysis of each player’s mechanics and swing efficiency.

Next, players rotated through defensive evaluations at their primary positions:

  • Catchers showcased pop times to second base, while velocity and release efficiency were closely monitored.
  • Outfielders threw from right field to home, allowing scouts to evaluate arm strength, accuracy, and carry.
  • Infielders took reps from third base, shortstop, and first base, fielding a range of ground balls to assess footwork, hands, and throwing metrics.

The workout concluded with bullpen sessions, where pitchers threw full arsenals in a live setting. TrackMan provided data on velocity, spin rates, movement, and pitch sequencing, delivering a complete picture of each pitcher’s current profile and projection.

All players were filmed throughout the day, with video footage and analytics being added to their Prep Baseball profiles. These updates allow scouts and coaches to assess player development over time and provide a lasting resource for evaluation and recruitment.
