On Saturday, August 1st, the PB Texas staff traveled to McLennan Community College in Waco, TX, to host the Central Texas Upperclass Uncommitted Games, an invite-only event for the classes of 2027 & 2028.

More than 30 players made their way to MCC 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 have already released a Statistical Analysis from the event, highlighting more of the traditional statistical categories, as well as a Quick Hits, highlighting some of the events top performers, while also posting Data Dives for both Pitchers and Position Players.

Today, we take a look at the scouting reports on every outfielder in attendance as well as rank the top 5 from the event.
