Jackson State Baseball Claims HBCU National Championship For the First Time Ever!
|
Posted By: Kennedy Williams on May 27, 2021 Jackson State sits atop the final Black College Nines HBCU “large school” Top 10 poll of 2021. The Tigers finished the season 34-9, one of only two Division I teams with single-digit losses during the season and topped each of BCN’s Top 10 regular season weekly polls in 2021. This is Jackson State’s first HBCU national title. After an incredible run in the regular season, Jackson State fell just short in the SWAC Tournament championship game, thus denying the Tigers the opportunity of further postseason play. North Carolina Central, ending its baseball program after the 2021 season, finished No. 2 in the poll, followed by No. 3 Southern University and No. 4 Norfolk State. The Jaguars and the Spartans moved up in the final rankings by advancing to the NCAA Regionals after winning their respective SWAC and MEAC conference championships. Two SWAC squads are next, as Alabama State finishes at No. 5, followed by Prairie View A&M at No. 6. Florida A&M finishes the season at No. 7, followed by North Carolina A&T at No. 8, Grambling State at No. 9 and Delaware State finishes at No. 10 in Black College Nines’ final 2021 Top 10 poll. In the “small school” division, with Black College World Series Champion Bluefield State University and runner-up Xavier University of Louisiana being locked into the No. 1 and No. 2 spots, West Virginia State University finishes in the No. 3 slot. Mountain East Conference champion WVSU moves onto the NCAA Division II regional tournament. Savannah State finishes at No. 4 and Albany State concludes the season at No. 5 in Black College Nines’ Final Top 10 poll. Miles College, Benedict College, Kentucky State, Rust College and Florida Memorial University round out the “small school” Top 10.
