2025 Future Games Tryout Austin: Positional Data Dive
June 30, 2025
On Tuesday, June 24th, the PB Texas staff traveled to Westlake High School in Austin, TX, to host the 2025 Future Games Tryout: Austin, an invite-only event for the class of 2027.
More than 60 players made their way to Westlake High School and participated in a pro-style workout, gathering unrivaled access to data through our state-of-the-art tech partners, as well as in-depth scouting analysis from our Prep Baseball Texas staff.
We've already posted a Statistical Analysis from the event, highlighting more of the traditional statistical categories.
Today, we will be looking at the top measurable data performers from the event, found below.
VALD
60-YARD
Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. We implemented three timing gates at the 10 and 30 yards, to capture athletes’ quickness, explosiveness and reaction time. From there, we will calculate an athlete’s top-end speed in miles per hour.
TRACKMAN
We'll continue to roll out the data we gathered from this event, starting with the analytics we have at our disposal from our TrackMan units. Below we'll look at which players had noteworthy batted ball and pitch data.
EXIT VELOCITY (MAX)
EXIT VELOCITY (AVERAGE)
Exit Velocity: This metric measures the speed of the ball, measured in miles per hour, as it comes off the bat at the moment of contact.
Batted Ball (MAX)
Sweet Spot %
Sweet Spot percentage: This metric is determined by how often the player produces a batted ball during the session with a launch angle between 8 to 32 degrees.
