PBR Ohio Staff Picks For Top Performances at the TPG

June 17, 2015

By Dylan Hefflinger and PBR Staff
Ohio Editor in Chief/NW Scout

The fourth annual Top Prospect Games came to a close on Wednesday. Many high school athletes impressed and put themselves on college radars. 

Since its inception, the event has quickly become one of the most highly scouted events in the Midwest with coaches coming from across the country to view Ohio's best talent. This year was no different as more than 150 of Ohio's top players in the 2016, '17 and '18 classes gathered at Prasco Park, a one-of-a-kind facility outside of Cincinnati.

In the coming two weeks, we will be adding and updating profiles for each of the players in attendance, including complete analysis and video.
