No surprise, our defending NCSA DI National Champions, the United States Air Force Academy are your Preseason NCSA DI #1 Team.  They were however not a unanimous #1.  Air Force took 16 of the 18 available 1st place votes while the #2 Team, Illinois received a vote of confidence earning a first place vote.  Not to be outdone, the United State Naval Academy also earned a first place vote helping them come in at #3 in the Preseason Polls.

As your defending National Champions put it, “Rankings do no matter until the final game of the National Tournament.” A very wise and true statement and a lot of softball to be played before we crown the 2025 NCSA DI National Champion.  Who will be atop these rankings at the end of May?  Could it be your team?  Let’s play some ball and find out!
