On Saturday, November 16th, the Prep Baseball Arizona staff hosted it's third and final Scout Day of the fall season with the Swarm Scout Day at Mountain View High School in Mesa, Arizona. This event featured roughly 28 uncommitted players within the Swarm program in the 2026 - 2028 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players, as well as collect updated metrics via our tech partners TrackMan, Blast Motion and VALD Performance.

Today we'll start our deep dive into the data collected at this event within this Statistical Analysis story as we take a look at the top TrackMan Hitting and Pitching data, as well as Blast Motion data, positional metrics and running times.
