ASU baseball’s recruiting has been on a tear over the last half-decade.
The Sun Devils’ latest haul nets them their fourth top-10 recruiting class in the past five years, as ranked by College Baseball News.
The 2020 class joins 2019 (8th nationally), 2017 (4th) and 2016 (top-ranked nationally) as finishing in the top-10 in the NCAA.
The team’s most recent recruiting class is currently ranked 10th by the site.
