Prep Baseball was at McCrary Park in Asheboro, NC on Saturday November 2nd and Sunday November 3rd for the Fall Top Prospect Games. Saturday featured the Underclass event, with players from the 2027 and 2028 classes. Sunday the 2025 and 2026 grads participated in the Upperclass event. Designed for top uncommitted players in North Carolina, there was plenty of talent on hand for each day of the event.
Players opened their day with body measurements, grip strength testing, jump tests, and their offensive workout. Defensive workouts were next, with players working out at the positions of their choice, giving scouts a chance to see their movement, arm action, arm strength, and feel for the glove. Players followed their defensive testing with a laser timed 60 yard dash. VALD Performance lasers were used to capture the 60 time, plus a 10yd and 30yd split.
Following the workout, players took part in a controlled scrimmage with pitchers facing live hitters. As the game concluded a "machine" scrimmage gave the hitters more at-bats and position players a ton of defensive reps. Prep Baseball scouts were on hand and will be reporting on player performance throughout November, and into the spring season.
