Southeast Senior Games - Team Georgia Position Player Anaylsis


Phil Kerber
Georgia Scouting Director

The 2nd annual Southeast Senior Games took place on Monday, July 25th at LakePoint Sports in Emerson, GA. This event kicked off the busiest recruiting week of the summer for college coaches as it led directly into the PBR Future Games and PBR Junior Future Games. What was a six team event a year ago, has expanded to include eight teams and featured over 140 uncommitted prospects from 10 different states.

In the days that followed the event, we produced post-event analysis that included performance highlights inside of our Quick Hits story. That was followed by a deep dive into the statistical side of things with a number of content pieces. First, there was the Stats Story on the traditionally measured metrics. Then we went head first into the TrackMan numbers and Blast data.

Today, we move onto individual scouting reports on Team Georgia’s position players. Tomorrow, we will produce the pitchers reports, and we will wrap things up with a ranking of the top overall prospects on Friday.
