DURHAM, N.C.--Claiming the No. 1 spot in the Baseball America Top 25 rankings for the third time in the last four weeks, Vanderbilt is fresh off a series victory over Southeastern Conference opponent Alabama. The Commodores limited the Crimson Tide offense to just five runs over the weekend.

UC Irvine makes a jump from No. 23 to No. 17 after taking its road series against West Coast opponent Cal State Fullerton. Coming off a sweep over California, No. 13 Arizona also climbs up the Top 25.

With East Carolina, Kentucky, and Southern California all dropping out of the Top 25, San Diego worked its way back in. The Toreros are now 26-12 overall and 7-3 in their last 10 games. No. 22 Mississippi State and No. 25 Missouri both enter the rankings for the first time this season.

The staff of Baseball America determines the Top 25 rankings. Records indicated are through games of April 8 and do not include ties.
