MIAA power ranking updates for Hampshire County teams

The MIAA released its most recent power rankings of the 2025 spring season on Friday morning, and several Hampshire County teams are slotted pretty high in their respective sports/divisions. The Hampshire Regional softball team is the lone local squad to earn a No. 1 ranking, as the Raiders check in as the top seed in Division 4 after appearing at No. 2 in the previous edition.

A total of seven Pioneer Valley teams are inside the top 10, including three in the Division 4 bracket for softball. Let’s take a look at where each team stands (all records listed are via the MIAA website).
