HARD HIT PERCENTAGE
TrackMan is able to track and follow exit velocities of each hitter. Based on the individual's top exit velocity, TrackMan is able to give us a percentage of hard hit balls. This percentage is based off of each individual hitter's top exit velocity.
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Hard Hit % |
1 | Dominic Pegues | NC | Clayton | 2024 | 1B | 50 % |
2 | Will Hicks | NC | Cleveland | 2025 | RHP | 40 % |
3 | Grant Buchanan | NC | Clayton | 2026 | 3B | 12 % |
LAUNCH ANGLE PERCENTAGE
Based on the ball flight, TrackMan is able to identify each hit as a ground ball, line drive, or fly ball. While there are many factors as to why a hitter may approach each pitch in a certain way, the overall groupings of BP can give some insight to each hitter's approach.
