Preseason All-State South 2025: Superlatives - Pitchers
February 19, 2025
On Saturday, February 1st Prep Baseball of South Carolina hosted its Preseason All-State South at The Shipyard Park in Mount Pleasant, SC. The Preseason All-State leads to identifying prospects for some of the summer’s biggest invite only events like Boarder Battle, PB Senior Games, Top Prospect Games, PB Super Sophomore Games, PB SR Future Games and the PB Future Games. The event featured players from the 2025-2028 grad classes.
During the event, position players participated in a professional-style workout that included a comprehensive defensive evaluation. Infielders and outfielders fielded ground balls and made throws, with arm strength recorded using a Stalker radar gun. Catchers executed throws to second base, with both arm strength and pop times measured.
Hitters underwent swing analysis with Blast Motion, while all ball flight data was recorded using TrackMan. Speed and explosiveness were assessed through Vald Performance lasers, capturing 10-30-60-yard sprint splits, along with jump metrics.
Pitchers threw a controlled bullpen session, where each pitch was tracked by TrackMan to analyze ball movement and overall performance.
Below we will look at the statistical breakdown for the event.
