It's not hard to figure-out why MaxPreps has placed Florida's Archbishop McCarthy at the top of the stack for the 2014 high school baseball season.  The prep sports website has named the Mavericks the #1 team in the nation in its Xcellent Top 25 Preseason Rankings, of which it revealed its Top 10 teams, one-by-one over the last ten days.


Archbishop McCarthy will be going for a record fifth straight Florida state championship this year with eight starters back from its 2013 squad.  MaxPreps reports that the Mavericks have three pitchers - Brian Gonzalez, Andres Nunez and Aaron Soto - that may be drafted in the Major League Baseball Draft in June.
