Any opinions regarding the TPX Top 96 College Coaches Showcases? They cost about $400 and we are thinking about attending a two-day event in Austin.
We are looking at a Perfect Game Showcase in mid-August also.

You can search for info on TPX and see what others say. not sure what is there
My son attended an event in Dallas. Keep in mind this is not a showcase like PG. You receive evaluations from the colleges at the event.
Quite a few schools at ours. We only had 10 (D1,D2,D3,JUCO and NAIA) The coaches perform the evaluations. If they like you enough - who knows but it provides you a tool to see where you are and what you need to work on. Some other events appear to have had 20+ colleges.
As a result of the event in DFW my son has been invited to a private workout with some other players to play before Texas, Baylor, etc - not all at TPX event was invited so I am not sure how this worked out.
Overall; well run and good guys.

Cutter, thanks for the response.
What position does your son play? When does he graduate? If he is pitcher only what mph does he throw? Just trying to get a comparison to my son - will be senior, pitcher only, throws 81mph on Stalker.

sorry for the late reply
My son 6'1" 161 pound dripping wet - has hit 83 but more likes yours 81.... on jugs
He looks like a baby, shaves maybe once a month so i hope he fills out some more. He is working hard in the weight room, eating etc
he grads in 2008
I hope he makes a school somewhere as he wants to play in college. He knows how to pitch.... which is good. I am told that he wil get picked up so we will see
