New Regional Rankings

Florida

Tampa Jesuit maintains the top spot but there is movement all over the Florida Regional Top 25. Olympia moves up to No. 2 as they are 10-0 on the year, and Columbus moves up to No. 3, sitting at 9-1, highlighted by wins over Archbishop McCarthy in the February 25 National Game of the Week, and Belen Jesuit in the first game played at the new Marlins Stadium in Miami.

Gulliver Prep suffered their second loss of the year and drops two spots to No. 4, followed by Archbishop McCarthy and American Heritage.

Three teams move into the top ten: undefeated Winter Springs, Coral Springs and Hialeah. Four schools enter the rankings for the first time with Nova coming in at No. 17, Bloomingdale at 19, Hagerty at 22, and Bishop Verot at 24.

The initial Great Plains Regional Rankings will be released with the Great Plains Regional Preview on Wednesday, March 14.

Mid-Atlantic

The first update of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Rankings will be next Friday, March 16.

Midwest

The first update of the Midwest Regional Rankings will be Friday, March 23.

Northeast

The first update of the Northeast Regional Rankings will be Friday, March 23.

Northwest

The initial Northwest Regional Rankings will be released with the Northwest Regional Preview on Monday, March 12.

Pacific

Previous No. 1 Harvard-Westlake has lost two straight games, and more importantly has lost ace RHP Lucas Giolito for at least 4-6 weeks with a slight sprain of the UCL. It’s a huge loss for the Wolverines, but they remain a strong contender in the Mission League and in Division 2 of the CIF Southern Section. The Wolverines slide to No. 5 this week and will turn to lefty Max Fried to stop their losing streak in this afternoon’s rematch with Alemany.

For their part Alemany moves up to No. 3 after beating No. 4 Valencia and accomplishing the improbable: beating Lucas Giolito. If they can keep their momentum through the weekend look for them to make an appearance in the National Top 50 Rankings.

3-1 Mater Dei ascends to the top spot in spite of a surprising loss to upstart Huntington Beach, who jumps all the way up to No. 6 after going 4-0 against previously No. 2 Mater Dei, previous No. 4 Bishop Amat and a couple of more solid wins against Tesoro and Gahr.  

St. Franics jumps back into the rankings, debuting at No. 10 thanks to a 6-0 start to the season. While the Lancers are traditionally strong, they turned over their entire infield due to graduation, including supplemental first rounder Tyler Goeddel. They appear to have reloaded quickly.

The other new addition this week is No. 21 Mayfair who is off to a 4-0 start after knocking off previously undefeated Upland 5-1 last night and has now allowed just two runs in their first four games.

Southeast

The first update of the Southeast Region shows a lot of movement throughout. Columbus (GA) has been one of the hottest teams in the nation beating Pace (FL) and Russell County (AL). They take over the top spot with previous top ranked Parkview (GA) falling a spot after losing to Cartersville (GA).

Barbe (LA) is up to no. 3 and Farragut (TN) who opens their season next week sits at No. 4. Madison Central (MS) rounds out the top five.

Six new teams enter the ranks, four of them from Alabama. Fairhope (AL) is at No. 7, Bob Jones (AL) at 13, Hueytown at 17, and Vestavia Hills at 21. Oak Grove (MS) and Etowah (GA) are the other additions, entering at Nos. 10 and 14 respectively.

The state of Georgia has 10 ranked teams, Mississippi and Alabama 4, Louisiana 3, Tennessee 2, and one from Arkansas.

Southwest

Arizona and New Mexico are the only two stats that have begun play in the region, while Utah opens their season today.

2011 5A Division 1 runner-up Hamilton (AZ) makes a ten spot jump all the way up to No. 3 after ripping off six straight victories to overcome an opening day loss. 7-2 Desert Mountain (AZ) climbs up to No. 4 in spite of losing their most recent game, thanks to quality wins over four ranked teams: No. 13 Saguaro, No. 17 Chaparral and No. 5 Horizon.

New Mexico’s early season shakeup has left traditional powerhouse La Cueva as the top team, coming in at No. 10. In the 5A state title game last year La Cueva knocked off Volcano Vista 11-10, and at 3-0 the Hawks look strong again, coming in as the second ranked team in the state behind La Cueva at No. 14. They are followed by fellow 3-0 Carlsbad at No. 15.

Texahoma

The top two teams the region, CC Carroll and Calallen remained steady, rolling to a combined record of 18-0. Meanwhile red-hot Klein Collins climbs to No. 3 thanks to a nine game winning streak.

Oklahoma’s top ranked team remains Edmond Santa Fe, who comes in at No. 6. But perennial powerhouse Owasso is charging hard with an impressive 5-0 run to start the season to move up to No. 7. Owasso will be tested as they travel to Florida this week for a spring break tournament, where they suffered one of just two losses all season last year. 3-0 Deer Creek played their way into the top 25, debuting in the final spot at No. 25.

New additions this week include: No. 18 Fossil Ridge, No. 20 Strake Jesuit, and No. 25 Deerk Creek (OK).

You like 6-foot-9 lefties up to 100 mph? 2026 Brody Bumila (MA) was electric in season opener, super easy upper-90s, multiple 100s. Easy operation w/ simple delivery despite size. Punched out 9 over 3, double digit whiffs. @PG_Draft pic.twitter.com/BChMhKIIhO — Perfect Game New England (@PG_NewEngland) April 2, 2026 Brody Bumila, LHP, Bishop Feehan (MA), Class of 2026 He's 6-foot-9, 18 years old, left-handed and was up to 100 mph (upwards of 3 times on some guns) in his first start of the year in low-30 degree temperatures. That's really all you need to know. Oh, and the opposing team arrived 40 minutes late. Coming off a state-championship run in basketball, Texas signee Brody Bumila made his first start of the spring on April 2nd and didn't disappoint in front of at least 40 scouts packed tightly together behind the backstop.  Knowing it was going to be a quicker look given...

PG Draft: Favorite Position Group

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
Every draft class has its strengths. Some years its a loaded group of prep infielders, some years its a deep collection of college arms. In this year’s class, certain position groups stand out above the rest to us. This week, the draft team dives into their favorite position groups. Groups that we believe are loaded with depth, upside, and big league potential. College Infielders It’s hard not to get excited about the crop of college infielders in this year’s class because of who is at the top. Roch Cholowsky alone makes the group exciting. He’s got gold glove potential at the next level and an offensive profile that should make him one of the Top 15 to 20 prospects in all of baseball the second he gets drafted. Justin Lebron is another player with as much upside in the class. He is a premium athlete that can really pick it at short and has big upside with the...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 64

Ron Wolforth
Article Image
What Do Barry Zito, Justin Verlander, Trevor Bauer, and Dallas Keuchel All Have in Common? By Ron Wolforth | Texas Baseball Ranch® | PG Arm Care Take a second and think about the question posed in the title before you read on. Four Cy Young Award winners. Four of the most decorated pitchers of their generation. What's the common thread? The first answer is obvious… they all won the most prestigious individual award in pitching. Most of you probably got there immediately. The second answer is less obvious… they all trained at the Texas Baseball Ranch® at some point in their development. Interesting, maybe, but not the point of this article. The third answer is the one I really want you to sit with, because it has direct relevance to your career right now: they all move completely differently. And they all attack hitters completely differently. Don't rush past that....

‘30 UTL Chase Jelks (GA) lifts this one deep into the gap & rolls around the bags for a triple. Loose LH swing w/ feel to lift. #DontBootTheLoot @PG_Georgia pic.twitter.com/leF4GMTawJ — Perfect Game Youth (@PGYouthBB) April 4, 2026 Chase Jelks (2030, Atlanta, Ga.) put together a great weekend for The Dream 14u Black in their run to a championship game appearance, hitting .444 with two triples and a double along with three RBI. He controlled the zone throughout the event in the box and finished with a 6:1 BB:K ratio because of it while also swiping five bags as well. It was a strong showing for Jelks, something that’s becoming common this spring in PG events.    ‘30 MIF Cohen Carter (TN) hits this one on the screws into the gap for a triple.

Another week of conference play down and Johnson County continues there tear through the spring of 2026, they retain the top spot with Gaston nipping their heels at number 2 for the third consecutive week. McLennan jumps up to number 3 with a big series sweep over rival Texas powerhouse, Weatherford. Out west, Cochise just keeps rolling in the desert and California looks to be hotly contested all the way down the final stretch. A couple of debut appearances down the board with Harford, CCF, and Linn Benton all earning their spot on our top 25 for the first time in the first week of April.

DII/DIII/NAIA Rankings Update: April 8

Nick Herfordt
Article Image
We are past the midpoint of the college baseball season and the stakes are rising by the week. Conference races are tightening, schedules are getting harder, and the résumés that will matter in the selection room are being written right now — one series at a time. This week's most significant development came in Division II, where North Greenville swept Young Harris in three consecutive one-run games to claim the top spot for the first time this season, knocking Tampa from a perch they've held most of the year. It's a genuine changing of the guard at the top, and it's exactly the kind of shakeup that makes this stretch of the season worth paying close attention to. Across all three divisions the picture is coming into focus. In Division I NAIA, Georgia Gwinnett remains the standard while Taylor and Cumberlands continue to make their cases from behind. In Division III,...

Iowa Spring League Notes: Week 1

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
Brooks Mitchell-Birdsell (2027, Atkins, Iowa) was solid on both sides of the ball this weekend. He was able to show a clean move working into it, with the feel to impact it out in front and drive hard through contact. He had good barrel accuracy with feel to drive the ball well, especially working pull-side. He was 4-for-8 on the weekend with a double to his credit, driving in 7 runs as well. Mitchell-Birdsell also put together a good outing on the mound, delivering 2 innings of scoreless work with 3 punchouts. He worked the low 80s with some run, flashing a mid-70s curveball with good 11-5 shape and depth.  Maddux Mueller (2026, Amana, Iowa) LH bat with plenty to like in the batter’s box, and he put together a solid showing this weekend. He finished 2-for-3 with a double, demonstrating both contact ability and the capacity to drive the baseball for extra bases. Mueller...

College Players of the Week: April 7

Craig Cozart
Article Image
April 7th Perfect Game/Player of the Week:  Andrew Williamson, OF, UCF  The UCF Knights (20-9) are coming off one of their biggest series victories in years when they went to Morgantown and took down the Mountaineers to take control of the Big 12 regular season standings.  The offense put on quite the performance and Andrew Williamson set the tone by leaving the yard in his first at-bat of the weekend launching a towering home run over the centerfield wall.  The 6-0/195 lefty from St. Petersburg, FL has one of the sweetest strokes in the college game today and when he goes, so do the Knights.  In the 3-game series, the junior collected 6 hits in his 10 at-bats, scoring 6 runs, on 5 walks, a double and he launched 3 home runs all told.  While he had a stretch earlier in the season where he was searching for his stroke a bit, he is getting locked in at the...
