PING!BASEBALL TOP 30
2010 PRESEASON RANKINGS
Since Ping!Baseball is all about college baseball and student athletes, we thought we'd mix in a little education with your information. Thus we present the 2010 Ping!Baseball Haiku Preview.
For the uninitiated, a haiku is a form of Japanese poetry consisting of three lines and a total of 17 syllables. The first and third lines are five syllables long and the second is seven. If you prefer your information with just the nuts and bolts and without the flowery language, just click on “more” after each haiku. There you can get a snapshot about each team and its 2010 potential in plain ol' English.
