First State Baseball Rankings

The first Seattle Times high school baseball rankings have been released and the KingCo conference is well represented. Two teams crack the top 10 in each of the polls, with another eight "on the bubble."

At the 4A level, preseason Crest Division favorite Redmond comes in at #3, with Newport just one spot behind the Mustangs at #4. Bothell, Inglemoor, Issaquah, Skyline and Woodinville find themselves on the watch list.

For 3A, defending KingCo tournament champion Mercer Island opens the season at #5, with 2010 co-champion Mount Si three spots further down at #8. Bellevue, Lake Washington & Liberty are the next group of teams looking to crack the polls.
