On Wednesday, June 15, the PBR Illinois and PBR Missouri staffs collaborated to host the annual St. Louis Open at the Billiken Sports Center on the campus of Saint Louis University. This event regularly allows both us an opportunity to check in on players from the Greater Metro region, including prospects that attend from central and southern Illinois.

Today we'll begin our post-event process by rolling out this statistical analysis, which will highlight the leaders amongst the traditional categories we gathered from this event. As the week rolls on we'll keep mining through the data at our disposal collected through our partners at TrackMan and Blast Motion.
