Prep Baseball Georgia Top Prospect Games- Upperclass: Catcher Reports

Staff

Emerson GA: On June 11th we hosted some of the top 2025 prospects in the state for the Top Prospect Games. This event is one of our top indentifiers for the Future Games at the end of the summer. The players went through a pro-style working, and took batting practice with Blast Motion and Trackman metrics. Game play followed the pro-style workout and pitchers were able to get numbers and metrics off of our Trackman unit, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more. 

Continuing our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look at all Catchers from the 11th.
