Prospect Identification Showcase 8.7.13 - Roster and Check-in TImes



By Steve Nielsen
Scouting Director

The Prospect Identification Showcase at Normal West High School on August 7 will feature some of the top players from around the Central Illinois area and more. Last year’s Prospect Identification Showcase at Normal West has already produced four Division 1 commitments in the last year, including one of the top prospects in the Class of 2015 and Midwest Future Game participant Cole Daily who has committed to Notre Dame. 

Last year at this event was the first time the PBR scouting staff saw  Cole Daily (Sacred Heart Griffin, 2015). Daily was subsequently rated as the Top Prospect of the event (CLICK HERE for story), was named to the Illinois Midwest Future Games roster, and has committed to Notre Dame, all within the last year.

This year’s event hopes to produce much of the same, below is the complete roster of participants.
