Reno, Nevada - On Sunday, September 14, Prep Baseball Nevada held its Reno Fall ID at the University of Nevada, Reno. The first Fall ID event of the year featured over 25 prospects from the class of 2026 through 2030.

Players also received video footage and verified stats to their profiles, giving them a strong foundation for building their recruiting presence. Fall ID’s play a key role in identifying prospects for premier events such as the West Coast Super Sophomore Games, West Coast Games, Future Games, and more.

We continue our Post Event Coverage with a look at the top BLAST Motion Data recorded at the event.

BLAST MOTION

HIGHEST PEAK HAND SPEED

HIGHEST AVG. HAND SPEED

Hand Speed: The observed speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.

HIGHEST PEAK BAT SPEED

HIGHEST AVG. BAT SPEED

Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

HIGHEST PEAK ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION

HIGHEST AVG. ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
