Jackson Summer ID: Data Dive, Position Players
June 6, 2024
JACKSON, MS - The Jackson Summer ID was held on Wednesday, May 29th at Jackson Prep in Flowood, MS. This event was an open event that consisted of some prospects from the 2025-2028 classes across all parts of Mississippi. These players went through extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman, and much more. Pitchers were able to throw bullpens and were able to get numbers and metrics via TrackMan. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing at the event.
Continuing our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look the leaderboards on the positional players from the Jackson Summer ID, see the standouts from each statistical category below.

SYNCRO ATHLETIC TESTING
60-YARD DASH
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | 60-yd |
1 | Graham Jackson | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2025 | SS | 6.66 s |
2 | Henry Abt | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2026 | OF | 6.80 s |

Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.

BLAST MOTION
HAND SPEED (AVG.)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Hand Speed (avg) |
1 | Graham Jackson | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2025 | SS | 23.6 mph |

Hand Speed: The observed speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.
BAT SPEED (AVG.)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Bat Speed (avg) |
1 | Hayes White | MS | CARROLL ACADEMY | 2026 | RHP | 73.9 mph |
2 | Henry Abt | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2026 | OF | 73.8 mph |

4 | Graham Jackson | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2025 | SS | 68.4 mph |
5 | Carson Philyaw | MS | Kosciusko | 2026 | 3B | 68.4 mph |
Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.
ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION (AVG.)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Rot. Acc (avg) |
1 | Elijah Johnson | MS | Acellus Academy | 2025 | SS | 18.9 g |
2 | Hayes White | MS | CARROLL ACADEMY | 2026 | RHP | 17.7 g |
3 | Jace Griffin | LA | Live Oak | 2025 | OF | 17.7 g |
4 | Kamron Roberts | MS | Undecided | 2028 | SS | 17.3 g |
5 | Tanner Binkley | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2026 | SS | 16.6 g |
Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
VIZUAL EDGE
EDGE SCORES
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Edge Score |
1 | Jeremiah Johnson | MS | Acellus Academy | 2026 | OF | 83.33 |
2 | CJ Spencer | MS | Neshoba Central | 2028 | 3B | 75.91 |
3 | Noah Williams | MS | Northwest Rankin | 2026 | 3B | 75.01 |
4 | Tanner Binkley | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2026 | SS | 73.33 |
5 | Graham Jackson | MS | Hartfield Academy | 2025 | SS | 72.00 |
The Edge Score is a comprehensive score out of 100 that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing athletes, parents, coaches and scouts with a benchmark number for assessing an athlete’s overall visual ability. In general the higher the Edge Score, the higher chance of athletic success. Think of the Edge Score as the 'Sixth Metric' in the standard Five-Tools that make up a ball player.
The average Edge Score for the 2020 MLB Draft Class was 79.3 (of hitters who completed a Vizual Edge test). MLB players we've worked with typically show stronger scores, with elite hitters scoring consistently above 87.0 on their Edge Score.
