The Preseason All-State will split into two days this year after a banner event in 2018 saw over 100 players descend on Virginia Sports Complex in Ruther Glen, Virginia to be seen by the PBR VA/DC staff. In the coming weeks, we will spotlight players that we are excited to see again at our biggest pre-season event.

Scouting Report

Underclass Games 6/20/18

Kangas is 5-11 with an athletic frame that has some projection left to it. He hinges to throw from a submarine slot and has a short, loose arm action with some quickness to it. Keeps body on line as he strides out and finishes in an athletic position. Fastball was 73-75, touching 76 with heavy armside run and some sink to it. Slider was 64-65 with late sweep and a bit of depth to it, he threw it with good armspeed. Change-up was 67-68 with heavy fade and very good armspeed. Advanced feel for his pitches as a submariner at this stage in his development.
