On Sunday, October 13th, the Prep Baseball Nevada staff hosted it's first high school showcase of the fall season with the Reno Fall ID hosted on the campus of the University of Nevada at Peccole Park in Reno, Nevada. This event featured roughly 30 players in the Northern Nevada area in the 2025 - 2028 classes with all players running through a full workout alongside our tech partners TrackMan and Blast Motion.

Fall ID's serve as one final chance for players to showcase their gains and development over the past year before baseball slows down to close out 2024.

Earlier this week, we broke down the top measurable data performers from the event with our Statistical Analysis and Pitching Data Dive articles. Now, we will take a further in-depth look at the top position players and metrics with the help of our tech partnerships, broken down by the categories down below:
