PBR Georgia hosted the first Fall Campus Tour at Georgia Gwinnett College on Sunday, October 23rd.  This event featured prospects from all high school classes, 2023-2026. Prospects participated in a pro-style workout that included the 60 yard dash, BP, in and out, and pitcher bullpens.

In the days that followed the event, our staff gave their initial thoughts and reactions from the event in the form of our Quick Hits article.

Today, we will begin our post-event process by rolling out the individual scouting reports of the day, starting with the position players. We will work our way to the mound tomorrow, before putting out a final list of the top overall prospects.
