Swift Running Leaders: SBA North


Brandon Hall
Mid-Atlantic Scouting Director

On Wednesday September 13th PBR of North Carolina was on hand at Mallard Creek High for a Scout Day with SBA North. The Scout Day featured players from the 2024-2027 grad classes.

The evening began with catchers going through a defensive evaluation followed by pitchers throwing a controlled bullpen with Trackman collecting data on each pitch. After the pitchers the position players ran a laser timed 60 followed by batting practice on the field with Trackman collecting ball flight data. The events concluded with outfielders and infielders going through a defensive evaluation. 

 Below we begin our breakdown of the players in attendance. Look for more information to follow in the coming days.
