On July 30th and 31st the Prep Baseball Wisconsin team hosted the Wisconsin State Games at the Rock in Franklin, WI. This invite-only event was for all high school classes (2025-28), and gave our staff a chance to get a look at nearly 200 prospects at the end of the summer.

For a closer look at the showcase details and the technologies we have on-site to assist our in-person evaluation for all in attendance, click here. Today we begin to conclude the analysis of the event with a look at all of the 2025 Infielders from the event.
