Virginia dropped one spot, to 10th, in this week’s D1Baseball.com Top 25, and has an average ranking across the four national polls at 15 – dragged down by the 24 assigned by Baseball America.

Even the average at 15 ain’t bad, considering the ‘’Hoos are just 7-8 over the past four weeks.

Fifteen, importantly, still gets you a hosting spot in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

The closing schedule is a little light:

  • Liberty (28-11, RPI: 23), April 22
  • @Pitt (24-14, RPI: 75), April 24-26
  • George Mason (18-19, RPI: 160), April 28
  • Norfolk State (14-22, RPI: 301), April 29
  • Radford (18-18, RPI: 129), May 3 (DH)
  • Cal (20-18, RPI: 71), May 8-10
  • Richmond (22-18, RPI: 162), May 12
  • @Louisville (22-18, RPI: 117), May 14-16)

Can’t afford any hiccups.
