Utah Top Prospect Games: Statistical Analysis


Cam Black-Araujo
Utah Operations

This past Monday and Tuesday, July 8th and 9th, the Prep Baseball Utah staff hosted it's annual Top Prospect Games, our marquee event of the summer, at Cate Field in West Jordan, home of the Salt Lake CC baseball program. This event featured roughly 100 of the top prospects from the 2025 - 2028 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players in attendance, as well as collected updated metrics and data.

Top Prospect events are the longest standing, class specific invite-only events across the Prep Baseball ecosystem. The Top Prospect is held in the summer months when recruiting is at a frenzied pace, and are always held in open contact periods with the goal of providing a high-end event for class specific recruiting to college coaches. These events are historically well recruited across the country for one reason: the players. It provides a fresh look at prospects who fit the mold of playing at the next level, both in game play and showcase style events.

The Utah Top Prospect Games allows our staff to identify players early on in the year who deserve invites to some of our National/Regional Events such as the Future Games, Senior Future Games, Junior Future Games and West Coast Games.

Today we'll start our deep dive into the data collected at this event within this Statistical Analysis story. Over the next couple of days we’ll be diving deeper into all of the data we collected, rolling out even more coverage from our signature summer event.
