Clemson Baseball Jumps to Top 5 After Impressive Week

Clemson baseball has achieved a significant ranking boost, moving to No. 4 in the D1Baseball rankings and breaking into the Top 5 with Baseball America after an unbeaten week that included a sweep of Cal and a victory over Georgia Southern. This marks the Tigers' rise to 30-5 overall and 9-3 in the ACC, solidifying their status as the highest-ranked team in the conference. Their performance has been highlighted by timely hitting and strong bullpen efforts, with standout players such as Lucas Mahlstedt leading the ACC in saves. Additionally, Clemson is set to host Stanford for a critical three-game series this weekend, with all games broadcast nationally. Other ACC teams also made notable movements in the rankings, including Florida State dropping to No. 9 following a series loss. Clemson's current momentum positions them as a serious contender for the NCAA tournament this season.
