Pennsylvania High School Baseball Rankings: Minimal Changes Despite Strong Performances from Top Teams
Hey there, baseball fans in Pennsylvania! As we head into late May, the excitement around high school baseball is palpable, with teams making headway as we near the finish line of the season. If you’ve been following the action, you know that the top teams have been bringing their A-game, but surprisingly, the latest rankings show only slight adjustments.
The weekly Trib HSSN state baseball rankings recently unveiled hardly any changes among the top-rated teams. In fact, just one team slipped out of the esteemed 6A rankings we all love to keep an eye on, making this week a rather quiet one in terms of major shake-ups.

Leading the pack again is Landisville Hempfield, boasting an impressive record of 12-0 in District 3, keeping their top position safe and sound. Right behind them, Governor Mifflin continues to shine with a flawless record of 15-0 as well, showcasing their powerhouse potential.
Fans might be surprised to learn that Parkland has stepped in to fill the void left by North Allegheny, who unfortunately has been riding a disappointing three-game losing streak. Parkland now holds the 5th spot, making their debut in the top rankings for this week.
