POLLS
Colorado Mesa is ranked No. 1 in three out of the four National Polls this week. It is the first time in program history they have been ranked No. 1 in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper Coaches Poll.

BIGGEST LITTLE CITY
Senior lefty Ryan Reno is currently tied for first (with nine others) in Div. II with six wins this season. Reno pitches in the Mavericks No. 2 slot and is 6-0 with a 2.54 ERA. He has a 13.5 to one strikeout to walk ratio and opposing hitters are batting just 2.59 against him.

LAYIN EM DOWN

PROTECTING THE HOUSE

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

ON DECK
The Mavericks will head out on the road to Alamosa for a four game series with Adams State before returning home for an Easter weekend showdown with RMAC rival CSU-Pueblo.
