The top teams include Buchanan in the West, Mountain Ridge in the Southwest, Bryant in the South, Brother Rice in the Midwest and Ketcham in the Northeast.

The regional rankings are based on the MaxPreps National Baseball Computer Rankings presented by the Army National Guard. The team's record and computer ranking are noted in the rankings. Numbers are current as of Tuesday.
