2024 Summer Rewind: Max Exit Velocity


Alex Armand
Louisiana Scouting Director

As we wrap up our 2024 summer event schedule and get ready for the Future Games, our Louisiana staff has decided to compile all of the numbers and data from our event schedule this summer, to compile a series of leaderboards.  All of the data for the below leaderboards were captured by one of our partners, Trackman Baseball, and is based on the information gathered from our Prep Baseball Louisiana events that include all of our Summer ID's, Scout Days, and Top Prospect Games.
