College Baseball Top 25: March 7

Photo: Texas Baseball (Texas Athletics)
The third weekend of the season is in the books and it was the most chaotic weekend of the year thus far. Numerous teams ranked in the top 25 lost series, disappointed, or made names for themselves so let's dig in.

Texas remains the No. 1 team in the country after coming out of the Shriners Classic with a 2-1 record, losing the Sunday game to UCLA in which they had to scratch star sophomore Tanner Witt before the game started. The Longhorns still look like a juggernaut, fending off challenges from Tennessee and LSU to down both teams in impressive fashion. There’s a gap right now at the top of the rankings where teams 2 through about 10 are all jockeying for position versus the gap between 1 and 2 which we believe to be substantial; we think the Longhorns are solidly the top team in the nation at this moment.



Vanderbilt climbs to No. 2 after a 5-0 week as it looks like Tim Corbin and company are really gelling in terms of role assignments and platoons. Notre Dame is at No. 3 after a strong weekend going 3-0 at the Cambria College Classic. Stanford falls to No. 4 after a midweek loss and struggling with Northridge while Ole Miss climbs to No. 5 after a hard fought series win on the road at UCF. Tennessee makes one of the biggest climbs of the week jumping to No. 6 after a 2-1 showing in Houston. They lost the Friday night game under the lights to Texas but the Vols look like a juggernaut right now, handling business decisively against both Baylor and Oklahoma. Georgia Tech climbs to No. 7 after downing in-state rival Georgia while Oklahoma State lands at No. 8 after losing the weekend series to Gonzaga. Oregon State continued its hot streak with a series win over UC Irvine and find themselves at No. 9 while LSU lands at No. 10 after a 1-2 showing in Houston exposed some glaring weaknesses with the Tigers.

Newcomers to the Top 25 include No. 18 Clemson who continued its 11-0 start to the season by sweeping in-state rival South Carolina while Florida jumps back into the rankings at No. 19 after a series win on the road at Miami; they’ve looked like an entirely different team after their opening weekend loss to Liberty, particularly on offense. North Carolina joins at No. 20 after a 5-0 week and an impressive sweep of Coastal Carolina. No. 22 belongs to Tulane as they came back to take games two and three against Mississippi State and with a void in the American it looks like the Green Wave can fill that top spot in the conference. No. 23 Virginia rounds out the new entrants as the Cavaliers are undefeated and continue to employ the philosophy of scoring a ton of runs and allowing very few of them.

PG Softball Chesterfield Fall Showcase HS Division Oct 17-18, 2026 Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex CHESTERFIELD, MO — It was a perfect weekend for softball, with 16 teams converging on the Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex to compete in the High School Division. Teams from Illinois, Minnesota, and Iowa were there to battle it out, and there was only one undefeated team in the tournament: the Southeast Iowa All-Stars 16U Gold Flowerbach, who went a stellar 5-0 on the weekend. We were treated to some stellar performances all weekend and below we highlight some of the standout athletes who caught our eyes.  Lucy Turner (2027, Marion, IA) of the Cedar Rapids Reds was a truly dynamic two-way player this past weekend.

Wildcatters Reign Supreme at 13u WWBA

After both the Best of the West and the Beast of the East wrapped up, a big conglomerate of high end talent and stacked teams descended upon West Palm for both the 13u and the 14u WWBA World Championships. While the weather threw a wrench into the plans early on and some adjustment was needed to ensure the event moved forward, it was nothing but sunshine and competitive baseball throughout Sunday and into the early morning Monday.  Kicking off with the 13u WWBA World Championship, the first thing to point out is the fact this was a wood bat tournament played on 60-90 fields and while the combo was a first for most, you wouldn't know it with their level of play throughout the weekend. In an unsurprising twist and a continuation of their 12u dominance, the 13u championship saw the #2 seeded Goldin Prospects lock horns with the top seeded Houston Wildcatters, aka the champion of the...

‘27 RHP Jaxson Weiss (IL) pitched well in his 5 innings and put up some eye popping strikeout numbers. He punched out 10 and allowed only 2ER. FB T86 early and flashed a BB 72-75. #WCFinale https://t.co/M8GtCUgxyS — Perfect Game Illinois (@PG_Illinois) October 17, 2026 Jaxson Weiss (2027, New Lennox, Ill.) a right-handed pitcher put up big strikeout numbers in his start on Saturday. He worked five innings while punching out ten opposing hitters. The fastball topped out at 86 mph and sat in the 82-85 mph range most of the game. His breaking ball was his primary off-speed, living 72-75 mph. Weiss keeps his body under control throughout his delivery, helping him with his good command on the mound. He uses his lower half well with a nice leg drive and gets his hips through, guiding his backside. He pitched with confidence and stayed ahead of hitters most of the game. Hayden...

PG Draft: Jupiter Draft Movers

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
The WWBA World Championship remains one of the premier events on the draft calendar as all 30 major league organizations descend on Jupiter to evaluate some of the top talent in amateur baseball. The event serves as a pivotal checkpoint in the scouting process, giving established prospects an opportunity to further elevate their stock while lesser-known names have a chance to put themselves on the radar of various organizations. This year was no exception, as several players made strong impressions and positioned themselves for increased attention heading into the spring. With that being said, let’s dive into a few draft risers and sleepers who stood out in Jupiter. Calum Andersen (‘27,CAN) had his A stuff working today running the FB to 96 mph with a devastating horizontal SL at 85 mph that can break bats. Mixed in a late breaking 12/6 curveball at 78 mph that induces weak...

WWBA World Championship Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 PG Draft: Jupiter Draft Movers | Jupiter: Stars Being Stars Gets your reads in now because by the time you reach the end, some of the talent in this article might be giving their commitments to a college somewhere across the country. Every player below did something that caught out scout's eye and should certainly be on the radar for college coaches, if they aren't already.  Braxton Sykes (2028, Brunswick, Ga.) tossed a total of six innings down in Jupiter, collecting six strikeouts while failing to allow either a hit or earned run during his tenure on the mound. The 6-foot-2 right-hander showcased an impressive three-pitch mix with excellent feel to locate in every part of the strike zone. His fastball lived in the mid- to upper-80s mph range with more velocity to project for as Sykes continues to add strength and...

WWBA World Championship Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 PG Draft: Jupiter Draft Movers | Jupiter: Stars Being Stars | Jupiter: Uncommitted...For Now There's truly nothing better than a prospect staying fresh, making the trip to Jupiter and fully taking advantage of the opportunity to perform in front of all 30 MLB teams over the course the tournament. Some of the players below were already on the radar but took their status to the next level, while others made scout and recruiters do a double take and add themselves to follow lists.  Benjamin Faigin (2027, Monroe, N.J.) showed off some serious stuff on the mound in Jupiter, pitching with a ton of energy and confidence. The 6-foot southpaw ran his fastball up to 95 mph, sitting comfortably in the low-90s with good carry through the strike zone. He went to a more vertical curveball when ahead in counts, sequencing the...
