Tampa
March Record: 15-3

The Spartans of Tampa are one of the power programs in D2, and played just like that for the month of March. Winners of 10 straight as of writing this post, UT has rattled off a 14-1 conference record as well to put them firmly in the driver's seat for a potential eighth national title.

Nova Southeastern
March Record: 14-5
BennettRank Results: +12
Fellow SSC members, the Sharks are right on the tails of the Spartans when it comes to gaining momentum in March, as well as looking like title contenders. Nova SE blew teams out but also showed the ability to win close contests, something that will be needed come time for the NCAA playoffs.

Illinois-Springfield
March Record: 19-1
BennettRank Results: +30
UIS has been the hottest team arguably in all of college baseball, rising their game to the level in which they have won 15 straight and 23 of 24 contests since starting the season 0-3. Winning plenty of low scoring contests, it will be interesting to see how far the Prairie Stars can ride their hot streak through the season.

Montana State Billings
March Record: 14-6
BennettRank Results: +21
MSUB had a little bit of a rough patch to begin March but rebounded well to finish eight games above .500 in the month to run their overall mark to 19-11. At 14-6 in GNAC play, they look to be set up for a potential deep run in the latter months of the season.

Bloomsburg
March Record: 10-4
BennettRank Results: +88
The Huskies had plenty of contests postponed thanks to the prolonged winter weather in Pennsylvania, but they were red hot when they were on the field, riding their play to a stellar mark. With a 5-1 record in PSAC play thus far, it will be important for BU to continue their play once they can get a more consistent schedule going.
