Parkwood HS / South Charlotte Scout Day – Event Rewind

The Parkwood HS / South Charlotte Scout Day was held on Saturday, November 22, 2025, at Parkwood High School, bringing together two events running simultaneously: a Parkwood High School Scout Day featuring players from the host program, and an Open Scout Day available to players from across North Carolina. Together, the workouts provided a comprehensive look at talent from multiple regions in front of Prep Baseball’s scouting staff.

Players opened the day with laser-timed 60-yard dashes, including 10-yard splits, to capture verified acceleration and top-end speed. The offensive workout included multiple rounds of batting practice, with TrackMan collecting ball flight data to evaluate contact quality and power potential. Defensively, players took part in a full positional workout where arm strength, carry, and pop times were recorded. Pitchers closed the day with bullpens, again tracked by TrackMan to gather detailed pitch metrics.

ATHLETIC TESTING & MEASUREMENTS - Parkwood HS & South Charlotte Scout Day

VALD PERFORMANCE

TOP 60-YARD DASH

Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. We implemented timing gates at the 10-yard split, to capture athletes’ quickness, explosiveness and reaction time. From there, we will calculate an athlete’s top-end speed in miles per hour. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.
