Island Fall ID: Hitting Data Dive
October 18, 2024
On Sunday, October 13th, the Prep Baseball British Columbia staff hosted it's second and final Fall ID with the Island Fall ID at the Island Training Centre in Langford, British Columbia. This event featured roughly 10 prospects from the Island in the 2025 - 2028 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players, as well as collect updated metrics via our tech partner TrackMan. Fall ID's allow players one final chance to update their metrics and profile before the winter season.
Earlier this week we began our post-event coverage within our Statistical Analysis and Pitching Data Dive articles. Today we'll conclude our post-event leaderboards within this article as we take a look at the top hitting metrics, captured by TrackMan, at the Island Fall ID.
