Welcome to Episode 87 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. It's time to talk about the Mid-Atlantic -- well, half of what we've been used to being the Mid-Atlantic. We discuss (at 1:17) the changes to the region from last season before previewing all the favorites by conference. In order:

AEC (at 3:57)
- Marymount won the first ever AEC title and look primed to defend their title
Centennial (at 11:05)
- Johns Hopkins is loaded again but will be tested even more with a full schedule and traditionally ridiculous SOS
- Swarthmore is back and we're excited to see if they can challenge Hopkins immediately after a full year off
- F&M, Haverford, and Washington College can all be expected to be in the mix
CSAC (at 32:17)
- Keystone runs this conference and probably always will...
- ...but could Wilson actually make a run at the Giants? We'd love to see it!
- Huge shoutout to Alexia Jorge at St. Elizabeth
- Shoutout to brand new program Rosemont
Landmark (at 40:30)
- Scranton won it all last year and has some exciting young talent returning
- Catholic seems primed to take a huge step forward with some bona fide All-Region talent
MACC (at 47:30)
- York (PA) is gonna be FASCINATING with two All-American sluggers that might combine for 40 HR but a TON else to replace
- Lebanon Valley could definitely challenge the Spartans, though

We conclude (at 56:48) with our player and pitcher of the year picks, and our teams to beat. Then we say goodbye.
