Denver Preseason ID: Blast Motion Leaderboard

On Sunday, February 19th, PBR Colorado hosted its third and final Preseason ID on the 2023 schedule with the Denver Springs Preseason ID at the Marucci Clubhouse in Castle Rock. With all of our Preseason ID's now behind us, the Preseason All-State is our final event of the winter ahead of the high school season.

The event was our largest so far in 2023 with 80+ players from the 2023 - 2026 classes and with the influx of talent, we had some impressive performances and metrics across the board. With all of the data collected and uploaded, we now begin to break it all down with leaderboards in several different categories below.

All players ran through our series of our tech partners including TrackMan and Blast Motion for batting practice, as well as TrackMan for pitcher bullpens, Swift Performance athletic testing and Vizual Edge testing.

Below, we continue to break down all the data from the event with the top Blast Motion metrics from the event.
