Performance Analysis

Speed & Agility

Liberty demonstrates excellent speed in short bursts, with a top 10 ranking in the 40 Yard Split (10th out of 86). Her 10 Yard Split is also strong, ranking 18th. However, her Home to 1st time and 5-10-5 Shuttle performance indicate room for improvement in sustained speed and agility.

Hitting

Liberty's hitting metrics show promise, particularly in bat speed where she ranks 7th out of 86 participants. Her exit velocity and peak hand speed are above average, indicating good potential for power hitting. The vertical bat angle of 28 degrees suggests a slightly upward swing path.

Arm Strength

With a throwing velocity ranking of 58th out of 86, Liberty's arm strength is below average for this event. This area may require focused development.

Pitching

Liberty excels in pitching, ranking 5th out of 86 in all measured pitch types. Her fastball velocity of 61mph is particularly impressive for her age group. The consistency across different pitch types (Fastball, Curve, Rise, Drop) demonstrates versatility and control.

Overall Assessment

Liberty Lewis shows significant promise as a right-handed pitcher with strong potential in hitting. Her pitching performance is exceptional, ranking in the top 5 across all pitch types. This versatility and control make her a valuable asset on the mound. Her hitting metrics, particularly her bat speed, indicate good offensive potential.

Areas for improvement include sustained speed and agility, as well as arm strength for fielding. Given her young age and current skill set, Liberty has a solid foundation to build upon. With focused training on her weaker areas and continued development of her pitching skills, she could become a highly competitive two-way player at the collegiate level.

Her uncommitted status and interest from Missouri State University suggest that she may have opportunities for collegiate play if she continues to develop her skills. Coaches should keep a close eye on her progress, particularly in pitching and hitting development.
