Las Vegas, NV – The Las Vegas Top Prospect Games, one of the premier events on the Prep Baseball Nevada calendar, was held on May 27-28, 2026 at the College of Southern Nevada. The two-day showcase brought together a talented group of players from the 2027–2029 classes, each looking to establish an early evaluation heading into the spring season.

Participants took part in a pro-style workout that included batting practice tracked by TrackMan and Blast Motion, 60-yard dash testing powered by VALD Performance, and a full defensive evaluation. Pitchers threw bullpens tracked by TrackMan, allowing our staff to capture detailed metrics including pitch velocity, spin rate, and horizontal and vertical movement.
