I’ve already given you the Top 11 Hitting Percentage leaders nationally in my National Review article. (This part will be repeated for each article.)

Region X Rankings – Updated
I normally release the Region X Top 8 with my Top 25, but neither the NCAA or “Ned” had SOS numbers I could use so I had to hold off.
