Less Movement In Writers Poll Than Other Polls…

DALLAS – The National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association continues
its tradition of NCAA Division I polls for the 15th year with its 2012
weekly surveys. Polls will be circulated from Feb. 20-June 28 following
the 66th annual NCAA World Series in Omaha, Neb., at the second-year TD
Ameritade Stadium.

To date, Florida has held the No. 1 NCBWA ranking in all six ’12 polls,
including preseason.

The poll voters come from 42 college baseball writers and related media
persons from throughout the nation. This week’s poll has representation
by nine different conferences among the 291 baseball-playing schools in
the 2012 NCAA Division I ranks, and there have been 12 circuits in the
surveys this season. Last year there were 16 different leagues (from 30
in NCAA Division I) among the Top 30 polls. For more information or to
