GCU checks in at No. 29 in Collegiate Baseball national rankings
Grand Canyon is ranked No. 29 in the Collegiate Baseball national poll released on Monday morning.
The top-30 ranking is the latest into a season that the Lopes have been nationally ranked in their Division I history. GCU was last ranked in the top 30 on Feb. 17, 2020, after defeating No. 22 Oklahoma State in a three-game series to open the season.
At 34-17-1, GCU's top-40 win percentage is paired with a top-60 nonconference strength of schedule. In WAC play, the Lopes have won seven consecutive four-game series and feature a 27-5 record. GCU is 20-3 since April 9.
The Lopes are one of only 13 teams nationally to rank in the top 50 in batting average (35th, .292) and ERA (42nd, 4.00).
GCU is coming off a pair of four-game sweeps, one at home against Dixie State and the most recent series at Tarleton.
The Lopes conclude the regular-season schedule with a four-game set against WAC co-leader California Baptist at GCU Ballpark beginning on Thursday. GCU has already clinched the WAC Tournament's No. 1 seed and would win the WAC regular-season championship with a series win against the Lancers.
