On Sunday, October 5th, the PB Texas staff traveled to Willis High School in Willis, TX, to host the Houston Freshman Free Showcase, an open event for the class of 2029.

More than 25 players made their way to Willis High School this past weekend 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 the top performers in the more traditional stat categories. Today, we will provide takeaways on the prospects that caught our scouting staff's attention throughout the event.
