Wilmington Fall ID – Event Rewind

The Wilmington Fall ID took place on Sunday, October 26, 2025, at UNC Wilmington’s Brooks Field, home of the Seahawks. The event brought together a talented group of players from across the region for a comprehensive day of evaluation in front of Prep Baseball’s scouting staff.

Players participated in a pro-style workout that included multiple rounds of batting practice, a defensive workout, and bullpens for pitchers. TrackMan technology was used throughout the day to capture ball flight data during both BP and bullpens, while BLAST Motion provided detailed pre-contact swing metrics for hitters.

Athletic testing, powered by VALD Performance, featured laser-timed 60-yard dashes with 10-yard and 30-yard splits, as well as jump testing that included RSI jumps and vertical measurements. In addition, players completed a series of body measurements to round out the full evaluation profile.

This blog series will spotlight the top performers and statistical leaders from the Wilmington Fall ID, offering an in-depth look at the athletes who stood out during testing and live evaluations.
