Utah Fall Top Prospect Games: Positional Data Dive


RJ Elmore
Western Operations Director

The Utah Fall Prospect Games are officially in the books, featuring over 110 prospects from the 2026–2029 classes. A huge thank you goes out to the UVU coaching staff for hosting and helping make the event a success.

Players kicked things off with a full pro-style workout, giving our staff and college recruiters in attendance a chance to get an up-close look at some of the top talent in the state. Position players ran through VALD-lasered 60-times, positional evaluations with recorded velocities, BP rounds tracked by TrackMan and Blast Motion, as well as additional VALD athletic testing and Vizual Edge vision testing. Following the workout, players moved into live gameplay, where pitchers had their TrackMan metrics recorded in a competitive setting.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be releasing post-event content, including stat leaderboards, write-ups, videos, player spotlights, and more. Stay tuned to our social media channels and our website to keep updated.

We now take a look at closer look at some of the top positional data recorded

VALD PERFORMANCE

TOP 60-YARD TIME

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.

TOP 10-YARD TIME

TOP 30-YARD TIME

TOP RUN SPEED

PEAK VERTICAL JUMP

PEAK RSI

The ability to develop force quickly is a requisite ability in most sports. The reactive strength index (RSI) has been developed as a measure of explosive strength and is derived by evaluating jump height divided by ground contact time during the depth jump.


TRACKMAN

MAX EXIT VELOCITY

HIGHEST AVG. EXIT VELOCITY

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 impact.
