Erie Scout Day: TrackMan Files (Hitting)
October 16, 2022
On Saturday, October 16, the PBR Colorado staff was in Erie to host the Erie Tigers Scout Day. We had about 15 of the high school's players in attendance with about half of them being upperclass and the other half underclass.
Erie made a deep postseason run in the 4A State Championships this past spring and it looks like they're in good hands with a strong underclass core. Below, we continue to break everything down with a look at the pitching metrics and leaderboards, via TrackMan.
