Results from 2023 Calgary Bisons Scout Day
February 21, 2023
We would like to thank all who participated in PBR Alberta's Calgary Bisons Scout Day. The event served as our second Scout Day this year in Alberta with the Alberta New Year Open coming today to close out this week's schedule. The Bisons Scout Day gave our staff a look at over 50 players in the program from the 2023-2027 classes as they continue to prepare for the 2023 season. We had several strong showings from uncommitted upperclassmen who should draw interest from college coaches, as well as some underclassmen who we'll have the chance to watch over the next 3-4 summers.
Below, we continue our post-event coverage with a look at the top defensive metrics and Swift Performance data.
