2017 College Top 25 (Feb. 20)

Texas Christian swept its season-opening series against Penn State and remains No. 1 in Baseball America’s Top 25—powered by Louisville Slugger—after college baseball’s opening weekend.

The top five teams—TCU, Florida State, Florida, Louisiana State and South Carolina—remain unchanged in the rankings after all finished the weekend with winning records. Louisville, Cal State Fullerton, Oregon State, Vanderbilt and Washington follow in the top 10.

Two new teams join the Top 25 this week. Mississippi moves in at No. 22 and Wright State joins at No. 25. It is Wright State’s first-ever appearance in the rankings.

Falling out of the Top 25 are Long Beach State and Maryland.

The Atlantic Coast Conference leads all conferences with seven representatives. The Southeastern Conference has five teams in the rankings.
