This fall and winter PBR will be highlighting some of the top uncommitted players in the 2023 and 2024 classes. Today, we take an in-depth look at 2023 middle infielder Brayden Uphaus. The Nemaha Central product jumps off the page athletically with a 6.84 60 and 95 exit velo. His athleticism shows on the gridiron as well where he was first team all league QB and 2A State Champion.
