Description
All players are invited to attend our Prospect Camp at Rice University. This camp is an opportunity for High School, Juco, and Transfer Portal players to receive instruction and an evaluation from the Rice baseball coaching staff. Our coaching staff will evaluate each position player based on a defensive skill session, batting practice on the field, and a 40-yard dash. Based on how many pitchers we have, live or coach-pitched simulation games will be played in the afternoon. Each pitcher will be evaluated based on a live bullpen session on the field using our Trackman V3 Stadium system. The Trackman metrics will include velocity, spin rate, horizontal and vertical break, approach angle, tilt, extension, etc. Pitchers will also be evaluated based on their overall command and presence on the mound.
