On Tuesday, June 13th, the PBR Missouri and Illinois staff converged on the campus of Saint Louis University to host the annual St. Louis Open. This event was open to all 2024-to-2027 graduates and, like all PBR events, served as an identifier for future invite-only events, such as our Top Prospect Gamesand the PBR Future Games.

Shortly after the event’s conclusion, our staff published the day’s stat leaders, highlighting a handful of names who put up numbers across the board. You can find that by clicking HERE

We then highlighted a handful of the day’s standouts inside our ‘Quick Hits’ story, which you can read HERE

Then, with the help of our tech partners, we compiled a hitting leaderboard, shining some light on multiple top offensive performers through an analytical lens. Those names can be found HERE
