2024 Rising Stars ID Leaderboard

Prep Baseball Upper Midwest

 

The Rising Stars ID series are events geared towards 14u prospects in the 2028 graduating classes who have yet to reach their high school years. These are introductory Prep Baseball events that serve as a starting point for any prospect with aspirations of playing at the next level. Showcasing your skill set is an important part of the scouting and recruiting process, and the Rising Stars ID is an educational experience that guides a prospect through that process and how to maximize their efforts and highlight their best abilities. 

Players will go through all the basic skill testing involved in properly evaluating a prospect’s abilities with a more hands on approach from our scouting directors and staff, creating a baseline of measurements the prospects can improve upon throughout their career while introducing them to some of the data aspects behind today’s event technology. 

For players from Iowa and Nebraska, the Rising Stars ID will also serve as an identifier for potential invitations on Team Iowa/Nebraska to the Junior Future Games at LakePoint Sports in Emerson, GA as well as giving our scouts an early preview into the highest end prospects who may find themselves on the Prep Baseball rankings boards.
