With the exciting, highly anticipated season off to a strong start, it's time to take the latest look at High School on SI Wisconsin's Top 25 state baseball rankings.

Considering the impressive talent, depth, and long-standing tradition of so many powerhouse programs competing within the WIAA's four respective divisions, it was an intriguing challenge narrowing the field of teams into an elite list of front-runners.

Defending Big Rivers Conference co-champion Hudson moves into the top spot in the rankings with a 12-0 overall record following dominant victories over Menomonie (13-2), Madison Memorial (8-0), and Madison West (8-6).

The top 10 teams in this week's rankings combined for an 87-11 overall record.
