Episode 77: 2021 Regional Rankings #1 Reaction - a podcast by Cespedes Family BBQ
from 2021-05-06T12:50:39
Welcome to Episode 77 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. We have our first regional rankings of the 2021 season and my goodness, this is a gonna be a wacky postseason. We discuss what we learned, what we know, what we're still wondering, and then go region-by-region with our general thoughts on each ranking. Topics include (but are not limited to):
- Central
- Webster a bit lower than expected but the resumes explain a lot, nothing too shocking
- Mid-Atlantic
- Penn State-Abington is the big surprise but you can see how they ended up there
- Why there's no Centennial team
- No 2nd NJAC team is unusual but understandable
- Mideast
- No surprises here, some underperforming teams have brought the overall strength of this region down
- Midwest
- Whitewater is awesome, shouts out the Pointers for having 2 big leaguers on the Brewers; cool to see a new UMAC team
- New England
- This region is almost guaranteed to get one at-large bid, but could they get 2 with the LEC/NEWMAC?
- New York
- Oswego State has been excellent and look like the only team in solid at-large position if they don't win the SUNYAC
- St. John Fisher is great but needs to win the conference
- South
- How are we feeling about Berry's chances?
- West
- No SCIAC teams at all is no surprise because of their abbreviated schedule, but who else could actually get an at-large here?
Then, we say goodbye.
