Below -

1- MHSAA 2026 Baseball Calendar & enrollment classifications

4 - state champions & runner-up

*MPR note: MPR is a ranking system that COULD be used for seeding playoff teams. The biggest issue I see is that not all results are reported to the MHSAA. Whether this is done thru lack of staff or to “stay under the radar” or just “why bother” I do not know. However, if coaches want seeding, then it is necessary to have accurate information. So coaches - you choose!
