2026 Kansas City Rising Stars Games: Data Dive


Eliott Wilk
Central Region Operations Director

On Tuesday, June 2nd, the Prep Baseball Kansas staff hosted Kansas City Rising Stars Games at Homefield Baseball Park in Kansas City, KS. This year’s event hosted 74 prospects who participated in the showcase, and we’ve been spending the week highlighting the top performers among them. 

Earlier this week, we assembled leaderboards of the more traditional stat categories inside Friday’s Statistical Leaderboards, which you can view here.

Today, we’ll be diving deeper into all of the data that we collected at the event with the help of our partners at VALD Performance and TrackMan, using the valuable state-of-the-art technologies that they provide at Prep Baseball showcases.

Here’s a look at the players who recorded some of the most impressive metrics across these many categories.
