Eunice, LA - The PBR Louisiana Senior Games were held on Saturday, September 16, 2023, at LSU-Eunice, home of the 7-Time NJCAA DII National Champions.  The event consisted of uncommitted prospects from Louisiana's 2024 class.  All players in attendance went through an extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman and Blast, the 60 yard dash using Swift Performance, and much more.  Pitchers were able to throw live against hitters and were able to receive their numbers and metrics off of Trackman, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more.  There were several college recruiters on hand for the event and there have already been several prospects who've received offers since Saturday.

We continue our post-event coverage with a look at the Blast Motion leaderboards from the event.  Please continue to check back over the coming days, as we'll release additional post-event coverage of the 2023 PBR Louisiana Senior Games.

HAND SPEED (PEAK & AVERAGE)

Peak Hand Speed: The observed maximum speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.

BAT SPEED (AVERAGE)

Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION (PEAK & AVERAGE)

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
