On Sunday, June 25th PBR Washington team hosted the Washington Summer Open. This open event was for high school classes 2024-26 and gave our staff the opportunity to watch nearly 20 uncommitted prospects in a showcase setting. 

Previously, we published our Quick Hits and Statistical Analysis from the event. Now, we will take a further in-depth look at the top positional players with the help of our tech partnerships, broken down by the categories down below: 

SYNCRO ATHLETIC TESTING

60-YARD DASH

3	Ian Hendry	WA	Everett High	2024	RHP	6.97 s
4	Dennis Shintaro Babcock	WA	Kamiakin	2025	OF	7.14 s
5	Tyler Peschl	WA	Liberty	2024	RHP	7.16 s

10-YARD SPLIT

Rank	Name	State	School	Class	Pos	10-yd
1	Briggs Ellis	WA	O'Dea	2025	OF	1.68 s
2	Tyler Peschl	WA	Liberty	2024	RHP	1.69 s
3	Ian Hendry	WA	Everett High	2024	RHP	1.70 s
^	Brody Born	WA	Roosevelt	2026	OF	1.70 s
4	Joe McJunkin	WA	Juanita	2025	C	1.71 s
5	Dennis Shintaro Babcock	WA	Kamiakin	2025	OF	1.73 s

Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.

TRACKMAN

EXIT VELOCITY (MAX)

EXIT VELOCITY (AVG.)

Exit Velocity: This metric measures the speed of the ball, measured in miles per hour, as it comes off the bat at the moment of contact.

BATTED BALL DISTANCE (MAX)

BLAST MOTION

HAND SPEED (AVG.)

Hand Speed: The observed speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.

BAT SPEED (AVG.)

Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION (AVG.)

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
