USUE Scout Day: Stats Analysis

On October 17th, the Prep Baseball Utah staff traveled to Utah State University Eastern to host the USUE Scout Day.
We take a look at some of the top overall data recorded at the event within this Stats Anlalysis article.
VALD PERFORMANCE
TOP 60-YARD DASH
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-yard splits, to capture athletes’ quickness, explosiveness and reaction time. From there, we will calculate an athlete’s top-end speed in miles per hour. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.
