Argyle finished No. 1 in the MaxPreps Top 25, the Baseball Coaches Association and the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper rankings, while finishing second in Perfect Game and USA Today.

Cypress dropped to No. 2 despite finishing no lower than No. 5 in any poll. The Centurions were No. 1 in the Perfect Game final rankings.

Other No. 1 teams included IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.) in the USA Today rankings and Orange Lutheran (Orange, Calif.) in the MaxPreps computer rankings.
