On Sunday January 30th PBR of North Carolina hosted it’s Preseason All State West event at Caromont Health Park in Gastonia, NC. The Preseason All State Events are the top winter events in North Carolina. Each year these events feature some of the top talent from each area of the state. Players ranged from the 2022-2026 grad classes. 

Pitchers and catchers were up first. Catchers were able to go through a full defensive workout, throwing through to 2B at the pro park.  Pitchers threw controlled bullpens with Trackman collecting ball flight analytics.  Following the pitchers, infielders and outfielders went through a defensive workout, followed by all of the position players taking live BP with Trackman gathering ball flight data. 

Below we continue our breakdown of the players in attendance with a look at some of the standout pitchers.  Look for more statistics and information to follow in the coming days.
