Nevada State Games: Blast Motion Leaders
June 8, 2023
This past week PBR Nevada hosted its annual Nevada State Games at the College of Southern Nevada in Henderson, Nevada. The event is geared towards top players in the State from the 2024 - 2027 classes and allows our staff get a look at these prospects before the travel season begins.
We had roughly 120 players in attendance with six Division I commits on-hand, as well some of high-end talent who are still uncommitted. There were several standout players who are heading into their senior year and have yet to sign, along with some of the top 2025, 2026 and 2027 players in the State who will be on the scene for years to come.
At this event, we retrieved a significant amount of data on each player including: 60 Times and running splits measured by Swift Performance, Batting Practice measured by TrackMan and Blast Motion, Vizual Edge for visual testing, Catch Pop Time and Velocity, Outfield Evaluation and Velocity, Infield Evaluation and Velocity and Pitching in-game analysis assessed by TrackMan. We pride ourselves on utilizing the latest technology in the game to provide the most accurate data for both the player and those recruiting/evaluating the player.
Below, we conclude our post-event coverage with a look at the top Blast Motion metrics collected on our sensors at the Nevada State Games.
