Class 3A Baseball Regional Projections (5/12/2026)

Getting good position for Regionals can be the difference between making it to state and falling at regionals. Remember for Class 3A that to make the regional bracket you must be ranked in the top 32 of the CHSAA Seeding and Selection index. Class .A plays a single elimination bracket for regionals. I am using the latest CHSAA Seeding and Selection Index, I pulled it at 8:00am on 5/12.

Class 3A

Thirty-two (32) teams qualify for the regional tournaments based on RPI/Maxpreps. League champions not in the top 32 would receive an automatic qualifying position (minimum of 5 teams in a league for automatic berth). The 8 teams with the highest RPI/Maxpreps host regionals. The remaining 24 teams will then be seeded by RPI/Maxpreps and then any first round league matchups will be adjusted. The bottom 8 teams may be moved for geographical purposes.
