Last week was filled with everything you’d expect from talented players and teams in the state of Arkansas as there were multiple games that featured home runs, plus more no-hitters and upsets.
Postseason play is three weeks away and a clear pecking order is becoming more visible in every classification. Make sure you go and listen to the first episode of Arkansas Preps Weekly wherever you get your podcasts for a detailed breakdown of the rankings in each classification.
NOTE: While performance and head-to-head matchups do play a substantial role, overall strength of schedule factors heavily in where each team is ranked.
