It has been two years since we felt the spring power.

Or should I say, two years since we’re released our weekly Trib HSSN baseball and softball power rankings.

These are the ranking where classifications don’t matter. If you’re good, you’re good.

Beaver and Elizabeth Forward were the two teams that topped our baseball and softball power rankings at the end of 2019.

Here is the first edition of this year’s power rankings with overall records included. These rankings have zero classification boundaries.
