Episode 77: 2021 Regional Rankings #1 Reaction

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.  Follow us on Twitter @d3baseballpod (DMs are open if you want to reach us there) and @CespedesBBQ.  Send us your best D-III stories or any other comments or questions to [email protected] Subscribe + rate/review on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-podcast-about-division-iii-baseball/id1342691759
