Underclass Preseason All-State: Blast Motion Leaderboard
February 10, 2023
On Saturday, February 4th, PBR Arizona hosted the Underclass Preseason All-State at Mountain View High School in Mesa, Arizona. The event is one of the marquee events each year on PBR Arizona's schedule and it was an impressive roster that included some of Arizona's top 2025 and 2026 prospects, as well as a select few 2027s.
The event had talent throughout the entire roster that saw several former Jr. Future Gamers, some top uncommitted players as well as some intriguing unsigned players who will all be names you'll continue to hear over the next couple years.
All players ran through our series of tech partners including TrackMan for both bullpens and batting practice, Blast Motion, Swift Performance and Vizual Edge. Below, we continue to break down all the data from the event with a look at the Blast Motion data collected on our sensors at the event.
