We’ll admit it if you will; there’s really not enough data – even after nearly a month of play – to accurately compile an accurate softball poll. District play has just begun for most of these squads and trying to determine a team’s strength from tournament games is about as accurate as drawing names from a hat.
Still, we’ve got to start somewhere, so here we go. Here’s our first crack at the 2025 Austin area Softball Power Rankings, based primarily on overall records and program pedigree.
So far, at least, Buda Johnson has set the early pace to grab the initial top spot. With district play underway, we’ve got some good matchups coming up this week – Westlake vs. Bowie; Liberty Hill vs. Glenn – that will help us dial things in. But for now, let’s put that digital hand into the digital hat and see what comes out!
