Northeast Ohio High School Baseball Power Rankings: March 30

In partnership with Prep Baseball Report Ohio, NEO Sports Insiders presents the first edition of our 2017 Northeast Ohio High School Baseball Power Rankings.

These rankings are based off of Prep Baseball Report Ohio’s weekly power rankings and throughout the season, we’ll be charting the rise and fall of all of the top teams in the area.

Northeast Ohio is loaded with Division I teams. We’ll post the top-ten teams, along with teams who are on the radar of climbing into that group.

Northeast Ohio does not have as many schools in Division II or III. Therefore, we will post the top-five schools in those divisions, along with teams on the radar of climbing into that group.
