TrackMan Leaders: Cougar 2023 & Bulldog Pitchers


Brandon Hall
Mid-Atlantic Executive Director

PBR was at South Iredell HS on Saturday November 6th to run a PBR Scout Day for two organizations.  The Cougars 2023 club combined with the Bulldogs organization to feature close to 30 players running through the pro-style workout.  The day started with pitchers and catchers going through their defensive work, with pitchers throwing a controlled bullpen for PBR Scouts and TrackMan.  Following the bullpens, all offensive players took multiple rounds of BP followed by Infield and Outfield defensive work.

Below are dive into the numbers produced during the Scout Day.  The roster featured players from the 2022, 2023, 20224, and 2025 classes.
