Over the past few days we have released the Stats Breakdown of the event, which can be viewed HERE.

As well as, the Top Tools Breakdown article, which can be viewed HERE.

As the PBR scouting staff is hard at work reviewing each player’s performance, writing scouting reports and uploading data into the vast player scouting database of PBR, we will look at a few quick hits on standout players from the event that made significant noise.

+ RHP Connor Maginnis, Jesuit HS(2016) exploded on the scene on Sunday with a fastball touching 90 mph. The 6-foot, 183-pound right-hander has an athletic, strong frame with a loose, clean arm action. Showed the ability to throw strikes, spin a solid breaking ball and showed an extremely quick arm.

+ C Cain Castille, Lafayette HS(2016) continues to impress with advanced catch and throw skills. At the Unsigned Senior Showcase he also displayed solid athleticism for a catcher posting a 4.1 home to 1st time. The right-handed hitter showed a solid bat path and outstanding bat speed that recorded an exit velocity of 88 mph.

+ C C.J Estave, Franklinton HS(2016) was extremely impressive as well, showing effortless catch and throw ability and quality hitting ability from a catcher. The right-handed hitter showed explosive actions and bat speed that produced an exit velocity of 88 mph.
