2023 Arkansas Best of Stats: Top Exit Velocities
December 12, 2023
As the year comes to a close we take a look back at some of the top performances across all of our events from the Preseason events, Scout Days, Summer events, the Natural State Games, and even players representing Arkansas in our National Events. In what was a banner year for Prep Baseball Arkansas, there were multiple standouts throughout 2023 with multiple prospects beginning to make a name for themselves. Today we take a look at the top exit velocities captured throughout the year. While there are many factors that play into what makes a good hitter, hitting the ball hard has always been a goal that every hitter strives for. Hitting balls harder gives the hitter a better chance to find more holes over time as well as showcase present/future power potential.
