This week, Prep Baseball PNW hosted the 2025 Pacific Northwest State Games at Heritage High School in Vancouver, Washington. The summer's premier baseball showcase event featured players in the 2026-2028 graduating classes, with many strong showings throughout.

The Pacific Northwest State Games event is a culmination of the year in high school baseball, bringing together some of the area's top prospects. The State Games allow college coaches to see how talent stacks up and recruit future contributors, with over 75 players from last year's event going on to make a college commitment. This year's event featured a great turnout of college coaches across the three days of workouts and gameplay.

Earlier, we released our Statistical Analysis, looking at leaders in major stat categories. Today, we unveil our Positional Data Dive, focusing specifically on leaders in position player data.

BATTED BALL DISTANCE (MAX)

BLAST MOTION

PEAK HAND SPEED (AVG.)

Hand Speed: The observed speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.

PEAK BAT SPEED (AVG.)

Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION (AVG.)

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
