Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week: TJ Collett, Kentucky
Kentucky slugger TJ Collett, now a senior, has enjoyed a productive collegiate career and he’s coming off one of his most productive weeks. As part of a 5-0 week for the Wildcats with games against Cincinnati, Murray State, Norfolk State and Oakland, Collett batted 10-for-22 (.455) with seven runs scored, 13 driven in, three doubles and three homers. Four of the five games were multi-hit games and he also had multi-RBI games in four of the five contests. Collett started the week with a two-home run performance against Cincinnati and finished with a four-RBI performance against Oakland. A PG All-American during the summer of 2015, Collett now has hit 26 home runs in 117 games, slashing .272/.362/.526 during that time. Kentucky improved to 10-6 with the five wins and out-scored their opponents 57-to-21.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week: Kyle Nicolas, Ball State
It was a hard-luck 1-0 loss for Ball State on Friday, although their ace, Kyle Nicolas, didn’t factor into the decision after delivering seven innings of one-hit baseball. Nicolas only walked one batter while retiring 17 of the 24 batters he faced via strikeout. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound junior entered the year as the 87th-ranked player for the 2020 MLB Draft as he regularly deals in the low-90s, peaking at 95 mph, while mixing in a hammer curveball to give him a legitimate 1-2 swing-and-miss punch. Nicolas has still yet to win a game this year despite having a 2.74 ERA over four starts, allowing just 15 hits and seven walks over 23 innings with 37 total punchouts and a paltry .188 batting average against.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week: Hunter Goodman, Memphis
If Western Illinois ever has to face Memphis catcher Hunter Goodman again it will be too soon. After a one-game tuneup against Central Arkansas in which Goodman went a relatively modest 2-for-5 with a pair of RBI, he went off over the weekend, hitting four total home runs and a grand slam in each of the Tigers’ three contests against the Leathernecks. He saved his best for last, going 4-for-6 on Sunday with 11 RBI, hitting a three-run double, a two-run single, a two-run double and a grand slam in a 23-8 win. Overall he hit 11-for-21 (.524) with two doubles, four homers, seven runs scored and 24 driven in as Memphis out-scored Western Illinois 55-16. Goodman entered the year as the 27th-ranked overall prospect for the 2021 MLB Draft.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week: Dane Acker, Oklahoma
After spending the 2019 season at JUCO power San Jac, Dane Acker hasn’t missed a beat so far with the ninth-ranked Sooners, delivering his most masterful performance to date. In a contest against LSU, and opposite a one-hit performance over eight innings by AJ Labas, Acker was just that much better, tossing a no-hitter in a 1-0 win to secure Oklahoma’s second win at the Shriners College Classic. He struck out 11 and walked only one during his time on the mound and so far this season he has proven to be the stingiest OU pitcher to hit, now allowing just seven base hits in 21 innings of work. PG’s Brian Sakowski was at the game and you can read his full recap, with video, of Acker’s performance here.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week: Robert Moore, Arkansas
It was a week of firsts for Moore, who of course would be a senior in high school had he not graduated early to enroll at Arkansas at semester. The team’s second baseman hit his first collegiate double and his first home run while driving in his first run (with eight others) and stealing his first base. In three of Arkansas’ games as part of a four-game sweep over visiting Gonzaga, Moore gave the Hogs the initial lead with a run-scoring base hit. In the other game he provided the go-ahead RBI and later in that game provided insurance with a two-run shot. He also provided his usual nifty defense up the middle of the infield and overall went 8-for-12 (.667) with four runs scored, nine driven in, a double, a homer, two steals and four walks.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week: Bryce Jarvis, Duke
There was no shortage of big pitching performances during the second weekend of the 2020 college baseball season, however, no performance was more impressive than Bryce Jarvis’ perfect game in an 8-0 win over visiting Cornell. The 6-foot-2, 195-pound junior had everything working on Friday, needing just 94 pitches to record 27 outs, 15 of which were punchouts with only one three-ball count in the game. His fastball sat at 92-95 mph while mixing in his full four-pitch mix that includes a slider, curveball and changeup. The win was the third of four straight shutouts for the Blue Devils as part of a 4-0 week and the Pitcher of the Week honor is the second for Jarvis, who got the nod in Regional play a year ago with a win over West Virginia in Morgantown.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week: Nick Gonzales, New Mexico State
It doesn’t appear anything can slow Gonzales down. He led the nation in batting a year ago and he followed that up with a huge performance on the Cape, leading Cotuit to a summer championship that led to him being named PG’s Summer Collegiate Player of the Year. He entered 2020 as a no-doubt First Team Preseason College All-American and accounted for over half of his team’s runs in their opening four-game set against Texas Southern. In those four games he went 8-for-14 (.571) with a pair of doubles, four homers eight runs scored and 17 RBI. He also walked six times and was hit twice. Gonzales saved his biggest and best performance for last, blasting three home runs – a two-run shot, a three-run shot and a grand slam – on Sunday.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week: Hunter Wolfe, Dayton
It would be wise not to overlook Dayton this season, a team that has a few promising prospects whose tools translate well to the next level. Senior staff ace Hunter Wolfe is one of those prospects, a 6-foot-1, 195-pound lefthander who out-dueled Bryant ace Tyler Mattison to open the 2020 season last Friday with seven strong innings. He used an 84-88 mph fastball, changeup and curveball to keep the opposing hitters guessing, leading to 14 strikeouts while only allowing one run on a pair of hits and two walks. Wolfe led the A-10 in wins a year ago (9) and also paced the Dayton staff with his 3.70 ERA as he and the Flyers are off to a strong 3-1 start with wins two wins over Bryant and another over UNC Wilmington.

2026 Staff Picks: College Edition

2026 College Preview Index With the D-I season opening up right around the corner, our staff came together and took a shot at who they'd pick within 7 different categories. Most are self explanatory while the "Sleeping GIant" category is in reference to a draft prospect outside of our latest Top 50 on the MLB Draft Board. It's also worth noting that once a player was selected for a category, he was unavailable for others to choose, outside of the Golden Spikes category, where we do see some double-ups.  Enjoy the weekend, there's sure to be plenty of excitement as baseball is officially back across the country at all collegiate levels!  Category Cohen Sutherland Cervino Billock Henninger Rankin Russo Impact Freshman Mason Braun Angel Cervantes Cooper Underwood Marcos Paz JD Stein Alec Blair Sam Cozart Impact Transfer Jake Schaffner Will Gasparino Brady Frederick Andrew Whalen...

Mid-Atlantic All Region & Top Tools

The Mid-Atlantic Region lost its only Perfect Game All-American when catcher Andrew Costello left his Pennsylvania high school early and enrolled at Wake Forest for the spring semester.  The Region ends up being dominated by underclassmen, with seven juniors and even a pair of talented sophomores getting recognition. The story of the spring could very well be watching the young power arms in the Region come outdoors and show their talents on the mound.  Pennsylvania juniors Cole Kuhn and Trent Lutz have been getting lots of off-season attention along with New Jersey senior Alex Weingartner. New Jersey has a trio of high schools represented in the Perfect Game Pre-Season Top 50 High School Rankings.  Delbarton HS, behind a very strong junior class, leads the group at 29th overall, followed DePaul Catholic HS at 41st and Gloucester Catholic at 46th.

Coastal All Region & Top Tools

COASTAL REGION (NC, SC, VA, WV)  The first thing that stands out about the players on the Coastal Region team is that this is undoubtedly the fastest All-Region Team in the country.  There are four or five players who could legitimately have 80 grades on their running speed from the region and all have other tools to back up their speed. Another thing that jumps out is the quality of the juniors on the team.  While the region features only one 2025 PG All-American in left-handed pitcher Carson Bolemon, there are six juniors on the All-Region team who are ranked in the top 34 in the 2027 class, with plenty more talented underclassmen just behind them.  Three region high schools break into the Top 50 in the Perfect Game Pre-Season High School Rankings.  Charlotte Catholic at 33rd overall and Metrolina Christian Academy at 42nd represent the North Carolina schools...

SOUTHWEST REGION (AZ, NM, NV, UT, CO)  The most dominant tool in the Southwest Region for the 2026 season is undoubtedly power at the plate, as most players featured below not only have the size and bat speed to drive the ball but have put up the numbers as well.  While that isn’t exactly surprising given that virtually the entire region plays at elevation, it certainly stands out on the individual top prospects. The Region features four Perfect Game All-Americans in OF Ryan Harwood, IF Rookie Shepard and C Alain Gomez-Gudino and RHP Dylan Blomker.  The 2027 class is looking very promising as well, with four juniors gaining mention on the All-Region team below and Arizona in particular having a very talented class.  Keep an eye out especially for 2027 3B Colton Floyd (Corona Del Sol HS, Ariz.), one of the best and biggest power hitters in that class.

DII Top 25: February 11

Nick Herfordt

Preseason rankings are less about certainty and more about expectation. Experience, continuity, and proven production tend to win in Division II baseball, but every spring reminds us how thin the margins can be. The teams below enter 2026 carrying varying combinations of momentum, pressure, and opportunity. Some are defending a standard. Others are chasing it.  At this level, projection is rarely about raw talent alone. It is shaped by familiarity, by the players who have been through a season together, by staffs that know how to manage the quiet stretches as well as the loud ones. Injuries, turnover, and postseason moments leave marks that don’t always show up in the numbers, but they shape how teams respond when games tighten.  The programs at the top of these rankings carry more than returning statistics. They carry memory and momentum. They remember what it felt like...
