Athens captured its first baseball state title in 35 years last season, topping Independence/Gilmanton 2-0 in the championship game.
The Bluejays bring back a wealth of talent from that team, and it is no surprise to see Athens as the top-ranked team in the Baseball Wisconsin Yearbook Pre-Season Division 4 Rankings.
Rounding out the top five are Ithaca, Independence/Gilmanton, Clear Lake, and Pecatonica.
Below are the preseason spring baseball rankings courtesy of the Baseball Wisconsin Yearbook. The 2018 book is the 26th edition, 248 pages in length and in full color. Written and edited by Joe Waite and Chris Lavold, it features a season breakdown for every high school and college program in the state.
