Last weekend, eight of the top teams within the DCP organization traveled to Arthur W. Perdue Stadium in Salisbury, Maryland for this year's Battlegrounds. Each team played three games in front of our PBR Maryland staff and college coaches from across the Mid-Atlantic region. Today we begin our look back at the event with a Quick Hits on some of the top bats. Follow along all this week as we continue to push out more video and scout notes on the top players from an incredible weekend.

Quick Hits

* Alphabetical Order

2024 OF Mason Barrall (Salisbury Christian) stays short and compact lining this one back up the middle for a base hit. Love the middle of the field approach, quick hands, scrappy nature, and high contact ratio he possesses. @DcpShowcase | @PBRMaryland pic.twitter.com/xfzi0N1ulS
