Twenty is the magic number inside of New England Baseball Journal’s latest Division 3 Coaches Poll.
With the regular season winding down and NCAA tournament selections inside of three weeks away, key series wins and non-conference results, as well as long winning streaks, have helped all 10 ranked teams eclipse that plateau across recent games.
One team has already clinched the No. 1 seed in its upcoming conference tournament, while one of the best active runs in the country has helped another vault into the top-10 for the first time this season.
The NEBJ Division 3 Coaches Poll, which is voted upon by coaches and sports information directors throughout New England, will be released on Wednesdays this spring. Those interested in participating should email [email protected] for more information.
