Colorado West Coast Games Leaderboards - Pitching
August 19, 2022
The PBR West Coast Games took place on August 12-14 in Las Vegas at UNLV and College of Southern Nevada. There was a ton of uncommitted talent in the 2023 class from seven states and Canada. We started with a pro-style workout and finished with three games against Arizona (8-6 L), Utah (16-5 W), and Pacific Northwest (3-2 W). Team Colorado was well represented and showcased their abilities all weekend.
We continue to highlight Colorado's top performers from the West Coast Games and below we look at the top pitching metrics from the Colorado arms.
