Performance Analysis

Speed & Agility

Callie demonstrates above-average speed and agility, particularly in short sprints. Her 10-yard split time ranks in the top 25% of participants, indicating good explosiveness. Her home-to-first and 40-yard split times are also competitive, placing her in the top third of the field. The 5-10-5 shuttle time suggests room for improvement in lateral quickness and change of direction.

Hitting

Callie's hitting metrics show mixed results. While her exit velocity and bat speed are in the lower half of the rankings, her peak hand speed is impressive, ranking 12th out of 86 participants. This suggests good potential for power hitting with some refinement in technique. The vertical bat angle of 25 degrees is within a typical range for effective contact.

Arm Strength

With a throwing velocity of 58 mph, Callie ranks slightly below the middle of the pack. This arm strength is adequate for her positions (RHP/1B) but could be an area for focused improvement.

Pitching

Callie's pitching performance is a standout area. She consistently ranks 11th out of 86 participants across all pitch types, demonstrating a well-rounded pitching arsenal. Her fastball and drop ball velocities are particularly noteworthy, both at or near 58 mph. The ability to maintain velocity across different pitch types indicates good arm strength and pitch control.

Overall Assessment

Callie Ebert shows promise as a right-handed pitcher with the potential to contribute as a utility player at first base. Her pitching performance is her strongest asset, with consistent rankings across various pitch types placing her in the top 15% of participants. This suggests she could be a valuable asset in the circle for high-level high school and possibly collegiate play.

Her speed and agility metrics are above average, which will serve
