DALLAS (NCBWA) – The National Collegiate
Baseball Writers Association continues its tradition of NCAA
Division I polls for the 25th year with its 2022 weekly surveys.
Preseason No. 1 Texas (3-0) swept Rice to remain unbeaten and
hold the top spot for two weeks in succession. Defending NCAA
champion (first ever) Mississippi State dropped from No. 3 to 10
after falling twice in three home games to now-No. 14 Long Beach
State.
Some of the big movers from preseason to week one also were
Oklahoma State from No. 13 to 5, Long Beach State from No. 29 to
14, Georgia from No. 22 to 16, and Oregon State from No. 18 to
12, among others.
There have been 13 conferences (12 this week) represented in
the first two standings of 2022, and there were 14 different
conferences in the 2021 NCBWA polls.
The 2022 poll voters come from among 33 college baseball
writers and related media persons from throughout the nation.
The ’22 season features 301 NCAA Division I baseball-playing
schools, and for more information or to join the NCBWA, please
