This winter our staff hosted four Preseason All-State events that saw more than 250 players from across VA/DC in attendance. For the next two weeks we will be highlighting event leaders from the 2027-2029 grad classes in ten different categories. We will take a look at six offensive categories, as well as four stats categories from the arms that were in attendance.

Today we look at the Preseason All-State Max Distance Leaderboard. This stats category highlights the hardest hit baseballs that we saw at our events.


*Please note that to qualify you had to be in attendance at a VA/DC Preseason All-State event during February 2026. All ball flight hitting metrics are recorded via Trackman.*
