<p>The Prep Redzone Combine Series ventured to Washington on April 14th, and athletes from all throughout Washington came through to showcase their skills. As a part of any Prep Redzone showcase event, prospects competed in testing drills, one-on-one competitions, and more. Thanks to our partners at <a href="https://www.trackingfootball.com/">Tracking Football</a>, we are able to give perspective on how some of the athletes test scores compare to past athletes and athletes nationwide using Tracking Football's com score.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How does the <a href="https://www.trackingfootball.com/why/combine-score/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tracking Football Com Score</a> work?</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>COM is an objective Division I Football calibrated score that includes high school only player position, height, weight, and verified combine performance data. The combine performance data includes the 40 (speed), shuttle/3-Cone (agility), and vertical/broad jump (power). Together, these data points provide a foundation to score and compare with other Division I players at the same position(s). This approach provides a method of consistent data aggregation and player comparison. The score is mathematically leveraged against Tracking Football's college database of over 75,000 current and former Division I Football players. Over 80 FBS programs currently use the COM score in their prospect evaluation process.</p>
