Northern teams have finished up their trips to the south and southern schools have stopped hosting “mini-tournaments” and invitationals to open up the season. Universities have arrived home from their spring break trips with the young season treating them either well or not so well. Teams are roughly twenty games or more into the season now and are gearing up for conference play. The games prior to conference play are obviously important for national ranking purposes and for players to get their feet wet before the conference season begins. Therefore, it is important to give fans an update on the new and improved Division I college baseball rankings as teams begin their conference seasons.
