Las Vegas, NV - The Las Vegas Rising Stars ID Session 3 gave us an early look at some of the top emerging talent in the 2030 and 2031 classes. With many players making their first appearance on a Prep Baseball stage, the event provided valuable insight into projectable frames, developing skill sets, and overall athleticism.

Serving as an important early checkpoint, this event establishes a baseline for future evaluation as these prospects continue to progress and refine their tools. Performances from this event will play a key role in identifying players to follow as they work toward earning spots at the 2026 Junior Future Games in Georgia and the Rising Stars Games at the end of the month.
