College Baseball Poll - Collegiate Baseball Newspaper

PRESS RELEASE

For Immediate Release: Monday (May 3, 2010)

TEXAS NO. 1 IN COLLEGIATE BASEBALL NEWSPAPER POLL

TUCSON, Ariz. — Texas has been ranked No. 1 for the second straight week in the latest Collegiate Baseball newspaper NCAA Division I baseball poll.

The Longhorns (38-7) have won 20 straight games, their longest winning streak since 1988 when Texas also won 20 consecutive games. With a 3-game sweep of Baylor over the past weekend, the Longhorns set a new Big 12 Conference record with 17 consecutive league wins.

Right on the heels of Texas are two red-hot teams in Arizona St. (won three straight at UCLA, 6 wins in a row) and Virginia (10 consecutive victories).

Poll Notes: Several other teams have been exceptional. Mississippi, with a 3-game sweep of Mississippi St., has won 10 straight games. Portland has also won 10 in a row as has New Mexico St. Two teams fell out of the poll this week in Louisiana St. (0-4 last week) and Stanford (0-4 last week). New to the poll is San Diego (26-16, 12-0 West Coast Conference), and New Mexico St. (35-12-1, 13-2-1 Western Athletic Conference). Both San Diego and New Mexico St. are first in their respective conferences.

The Collegiate Baseball newspaper poll is the oldest college baseball poll. Its birth took place during the 1957 college baseball season.
