Prep Baseball Report of North Carolina began its summer event schedule by running a PBR Scout Day with Ultimate Performance at their beautiful facility in Matthews, NC. The indoor facility allowed the players attending the showcase to run a full 40, on a laser timer, throw from their defensive positions and hit in a 60’ x 80’ cage so evaluators could see the ball fly. Along with the players from the Ultimate Performance program, PBR ran an open ID event, the Queen City Pre-Summer Prospect ID.
A total of 33 players participated in the scout day. Each player will receive a full evaluation and video from PBR. The evaluation is written by a PBR Scout that was on hand, with each evaluator having multiple years as a Division I Recruiting Coordinator. The evaluations will be released in the coming week. Videos have been loaded directly to the player profiles and can be seen by subscribers, by clicking on the player’s name in the event roster, or below in the breakdown of statistics.
