On Wednesday, August 6, 2014 Prep Baseball Report Kansas hosted the Class of 2015 Games at Trusler Sports Complex in Emporia, Kansas, an event for uncommitted seniors-to-be.  Over the next several weeks we will be updating player profiles, posting videos, feature stories and scouting reports from this event.  For now, we take a look at the measurable stats from the event - times and velocities.

We checked home-to-first base times during pre-game batting practice, however some players improved their times during game action - we use each player’s best time on the day.
