Johnson County CC Scout Day: Data Dive
November 13, 2023
On Friday, October 27th, the PBR Kansas staff traveled to Johnson County CC in Overland Park to run the Johnson County Scout Day. More than 15 players from the Cavaliers program participated in a pro-style workout, collecting unrivaled data with the help of our state-of-the-art tech partners like Blast Motion, TrackMan, and Swift.

We'd previously identified the day's stat leaders within our 'Stat Story', where our staff organized the day's traditional stat leaders (60-yard dash, exit velocity, etc) into individual leaderboards. You can find that story HERE.
Today, we're diving deeper into the data with the help of our tech partners at TrackMan, Blast Motion, and Swift to spotlight even more players that showed well from an underlying analytical perspective, which you can find below.
