What do you think my benchmark for pitching velocity should be for next season when I try out for JV as a 10th grader? I know a lot of you guys are gonna say that velocity isn't important but if you don't have velocity, you usually don't get looked at unless you can locate the ball like Greg Maddux. So tell me what speed I should try to reach in 12 months. I am 5'7 160 pounds. I throw in the low 70's. I haven't grown much in the last few years so hopefully that will change this year. Please note that I go to a highschool with a really really good baseball program that I think might be one of the top 50 baseball programs in the nation.
