VENTURA, CALIF. - Continuing the Prep Baseball California Summer ID series our staff got eyes on several talented players at the Ventura County Summer ID on Thursday, June 20th at Thousand Oaks High School. Players in attendance on our Summer ID series will range from the '25 graduating class to the '28 graduating class.

Players were put through the traditional showcase workout that included a 60-yard sprint time and jump testing on Swift Technology platform, on-field batting Practice, defensive workouts at their positions, and concluded with pitchers throwing an on-field bullpen session. Trackman was in use for all hitting and pitching sessions to gather data and help measure their present athletic proficiencies and future projectability. As well, all hitters recorded data using Blast Motion sensors to track their swing metrics.

Summer ID events are designed for players in the '25-'28 to utilize the showcase structure to interact with our Prep Baseball California staff and allow our staff to evaluate their present athletic ability, baseball tool sets and provide feedback on the development process for these players. Players who stand out at these events receive data packages on their metrics including Trackman, Blast Motion, and Swift for position players with Trackman for pitchers. In addition, all players in attendance receive video to be posted to their Prep Baseball profile which gives college coaches around the country access to identify them as potential recruits. As well, players have the opportunity to earn invites to select Prep Baseball California Invite-only events including California State Games (our biggest recruiting event), Preseason All-State Events, Uncommitted Games, Top Prospect Games, Future Games Tryouts, ProCase, and more.
