Uncommitted Spotlight: '21 Jace Avina

May 7, 2020
Brett Harrison
Nevada Scouting Director

Jace Avina, #6 Ranked Outfielder and #13 Overall 2021, is an Under the Radar, Northern Nevada prospect that has built himself into a legit prospect. The Future Games attendee has a reputation of being a tireless worker and it is evident by the improvements he has made at each Prep Baseball Report event he has attended over the past couple of years. A Spanish Springs product, Avina was off to a blazing start in the shortened 2020 season, including two opposite field homeruns against a loaded Reno squad that kept his team in the game before coming up short. This season was shaping up to be Avina's breakout year before it was unfortunately cut short, but he will have a his opportunity to showcase himself at the Upperclass Top Prospect Games this summer.

There will be a lecture about what scouts look for, how to comport themselves, what to expect in the recruiting process, and the overall landscape of playing at the next level. The second function of this event will be for players to create baseline numbers for themselves to improve. The third reason for this event is for PBR to have an in-depth look at the best young players and the future of the state.  The fourth function of the event is to identify players to represent Nevada at the PBR Junior Future Games held at LakePoint in Cartersville, GA.
