With opening day rapidly approaching for many local teams, more organizations have released their 2011 pre-season rankings. Unlike earlier polls, Wisconsin has no mention in the Division I, II or NAIA polls, but teams are well represented at the Division III level and Madison College is garnering a lot of pre-season respect at the JUCO Division II level.
The NCBWA/D3Baseball.com Top 25 features five teams listed in the poll or receiving votes.
Stevens Point and Whitewater both rank in the top five of the poll with the Pointers sitting at #2 and the Warhawks at #5.
While no other Wisconsin team cracks the top 25, three schools are listed in the "receiving votes" section; Oshkosh and Carthage both check in with 21 votes and Ripon is close behind with 12 votes.
It is nice to see some love for the Titans of Oshkosh who had a very successful recruiting class come in, but as always the pre-season rankings will mean nothing in a matter of weeks.
The NJCAA released a Top 15 Poll for Division II Junior Colleges and Madison College was ranked #7 nationally and #4 in a very deep region.
