Beavers Baseball has been picked #5 Nationally in a preseason poll by Baseball America. The Beavers are the highest-ranked team from the Pac-12 Conference, garnering 485 points. TCU is No. 1 nationally with 496 points, followed by LSU (494), Florida (491) and South Carolina (489).

As you remember last season, OSU was snubbed by the selection committee and left out of the NCAA Tournament. Head coach Pat Casey was quoted as saying to the team after the snub was made public that, “Life sometimes isn't fair and this is a very unfair decision made by a group of people that don't play the game." Here is the full article on the snub, from the Oregonian.

I was one of many who is happy that Gonzaga is back on the schedule, after they were left off last year. Here is the Beavers full 2017 schedule.
