Event History

We've been hosting this event for the past five years, and it's consistently provided us a look at prominent players who've later gone on to receive invitations to select events, like the PBR Future Games. Among the players in attendance at this event in 2020, there are already 25 commitments with 6 going to the SEC or Big 12. From the 2019 event we have seen 55 commits to date and 66 and counting  from our 2018 event, well over 70% of the participants. 

We're looking forward to checking in on the next crop of talent from this event to earn next-level attention in the coming weeks, months, and years.

2021 Roster

There are a handful of player already committed coming to this year's event, looking to improve their profiles and prove themselves on a national level. Parker Coil was a standout at the 2019 Future Games where he dominated team Texas and committed to Arkansas shortly after. Nathan Rogalski is another long and projectable left-hander who committed to Oklahoma state last summer after the OK Summer Underclass Games. Kaemyn Franklin is one of the youngest commits we have ever seen, committing to Oklahoma last year, and will be the lone 2025 on the roster. Other talented committed players in attendance will include Zachary Carroll (Cowley County) and Aaron Baker (Cowley County).
