Can Functional Tests Predict Throwing Velocity Or Batting-Exit Velocity In Division Iii Collegiate Baseball: A Predictive Validity Investigation, Lucas Stetter, Luigi Russo
Student Symposium

The purpose of this study is twofold: (1) Do relationships exist between upper body, lower body or whole-body tests of strength and power with throwing or batting velocity (2) Which variable or group of variables best predict the sport-specific tasks of throwing and batting velocity.
