Our staffers saw two more arms touch 96 mph or better this week, bringing our 12-week total to 87. Here's the list of heat.

At the recent G. Tech camp one girl stood out, consistently hitting 67 on their radar. It showed my 12 year old at 56, so seemed pretty accurate.

We were impressed by that speed. I really wish I'd gotten her name, as I'm curious where she lands based on seeing her that one time.

I'll add it to your jobs, Rad.

Prefer to have the college games provide the visual and speed information they gather.

Where's Hillhouse? Mr. B this is your chance for some real pitch analyzation...

Good for her 12 yr old 56mph!

We’ve played a few girls that are P5 committed and I think the 63-64 is about right. We saw one girl that consistently hit 66 mph, but that’s the fastest we’ve seen. A bunch in the 61-63 mph. I’m assuming they pick up an mph or two in college.

Will post this again here
AVERAGE AND HIGH -END AVERAGE
* then there are the pitchers that throw faster than high-end average.

That’s probably right…I don’t know where it came from, but seems to make sense.

Based on my experience giving pitching lessons to girls from age 8–23 years old, below is a chart showing the average pitching speeds by age group. I also include a couple drills for increasing pitching speeds.

That looks pretty close to the one I posted on the other thread.

I was at the Sparkler and Legacy this season, but we were in the supplemental in Colorado. We didn't see anything that fast. I guess the Power Pool was higher

This was not everyone we saw at those tournaments just the Top 25 and P5 kids. Plenty of mid major pitchers as well and they were not throwing upper 60's. Best we saw was a UCLA commit at PGF. Consistently 66-68(until she tired in the later innings) with an incredible riseball and a 48mph change up that dropped off the table
