AZ Fall Review: Statistical Analysis


Brett Thorney
State Scouting Director

Over the last couple months, PBR Arizona has had a chance to hold a couple of events including our Tucson ID, Fall Underclass & Uncommitted Upperclass Showcases. Yesterday, we had a chance to wrap up our Fall Season with our Arizona Fall Review showcase.  This is an open event has been a great event for prospects to show what improvements they have made from the fall seasons as well identify new prospects. Once again, we were able see many new faces up close as well as get updates on players that we have seen in the past. There were several players will solid performances on the day that one should pay attention to moving forward.

The Arizona Fall Review took place on Sunday, December 6th at Arcadia Ridge High School in Phoenix, AZ. This event featured over 35 prospects from the 2021-2024 grad classes from all across the state of Arizona. We also had players in attendance from California, Colorado and New Mexico. This event has become a popular event as the fall season wraps up and we transition to the off-season.

Today, we begin our post event coverage by taking a look at the top five performers at each statistical category. Be sure to stay tuned over the next few weeks for more post-event coverage.
