The 2026 high school baseball season is underway and, as usual, excitement is present throughout Minnesota. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the season and, as is the case each year, there are some very talented players and teams across the North Star State.

Please keep checking back throughout the season as we will be your one-stop shop for everything related to high school baseball across the state.

Each week we will be releasing our Power Rankings, Scout Blog, Diamond Notes, and Player of The Week, covering all the bases. Today, we look at the scores from our teams in our Power Rankings.

NOTES:

+ No. 1 Farmington keeps rolling, moving to 21-1 with an 11-1 win over Apple Valley. The Tigers pounded out hits throughout the lineup, led by Grady Renwick (2026, IF, Southwest Minnesota State), who stayed red-hot with a 3-for-3 day that included a double and two runs scored. Renwick is now hitting .470/.573/.818 on the season. Ben Keppler (2026, 1B, Uncommitted) added three hits of his own, while Park Hilden (2027, IF, Uncommitted) went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and two runs scored.

+ No. 4 Mahtomedi blanked South St. Paul, 8-0, behind another complete all-around effort from Connor Finn (2026, LHP, Texas Tech). Finn finished 3-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored, while Tino Foster (2027, RHP, Uncommitted) dominated on the mound with five shutout innings, allowing just two hits, no walks, and striking out seven. The Zephyrs are now 14-4.

+ No. 5 Rosemount needed extras to get past Lakeville North. Tied 1-1 entering the bottom of the eighth, Cal Ronay (2026, RHP/IF, Uncommitted) reached after being hit by a pitch before Jacob Michel (2027, IF, Oregon) ended it with a walk-off two-run home run. The Irish improve to 16-5.

+ No. 10 Champlin Park knocked off No. 6 Stillwater, 4-0, in the completion of a suspended April contest. Donovan Vendel (2026, RHP, Sioux Falls) originally set the tone with two scoreless innings before Evan Nordby (2026, RHP, Minnesota State-Mankato) took over yesterday and finished the final five innings, allowing just three hits while striking out four. Luke Carlson (2027, IF, Uncommitted) delivered an RBI single in the original game and continues to be one of the catalysts for the Rebels offense, now hitting .483/.545/.683 with a team-high 21 RBI. Champlin Park moves to 14-5 while Stillwater falls to 16-5.

+ No. 7 Woodbury broke things open with a four-run third inning, and that was more than enough for Luke Burton (2026) on the mound. Burton went the distance, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out seven without issuing a walk. The Royals improve to 15-6.

+ No. 8 Perham kept the offense rolling in a 21-7, five-inning win over Pelican Rapids. Gavin Griffin (2027, OF, Uncommitted) continued his monster season, going 3-for-4 with a double, home run, five RBI, and two runs scored. Griffin is now hitting .638 on the year. Brody Blume added a 2-for-2 day with two RBI and three runs scored as the Yellowjackets moved to 15-2.

+ No. 9 Mounds View pulled away for a 7-2 win over Roseville after trailing early. Liam Berlien (2026, SS, Uncommitted) sparked the comeback with a solo home run in the fourth before Josh Serr (2026, LHP/OF, Uncommitted) delivered the go-ahead double. Andrew Gette (2026, RHP, Miami) followed with a two-run double later in the inning to give the Mustangs breathing room. Mounds View is now 16-5.
