Niagara Uncommitted Open: TrackMan Files (Hitting)
April 14, 2022
On Friday, October 8th, our staff crossed the border into New York for our Niagara Preseason Uncommitted Open hosted at Niagara University. The event gave our staff a look at uncommitted 2022s and 2023s from Ontario while giving the players a chance to compete in live-game action on a Division I field, in front of multiple local college coaches in the Niagara/Buffalo area.
We had our TrackMan unit on site throughout the day to get numbers on both sides of the ball and we begin to break those hitting numbers down below.
