On Tuesday, July 2nd Prep Baseball of South Carolina hosted trials for Team Carolina at The University of South Carolina in Columbia, SC. The Team Carolina Trials leads to identifying prospects for some of the summer’s biggest invite only events like PB Senior Games, Top Prospect Games, PB JR Future Games, PB SR Future Games and the PB Future Games. The event featured players from the 2025-2028 grad classes. 

The event began with A pro-style workout for all the position players followed that included running a laser timed 60 recorded using Swift Technology, BP with TrackMan ball flight analysis, a defensive evaluation, and finished with pitcher bullpens with each pitch tracked by Trackman.
