Here’s the updated, edited list of nominees for the 44th annual Cal-Hi Sports All-State Baseball Teams from the CIF Central Coast, Central, North Coast, SF/Oakland, Northern and Sac-Joaquin Sections. Thanks to everyone who sent in nominations and info in support of those already on the list from the previous version of these lists. It’s still not too late to send in a nomination. We are now only about one week out from picking the first of our all-state baseball teams.
UPDATED ALL-STATE BASEBALL NOMINATIONS LIST
FOR SOCAL COMING SOON.
This is a post for our Gold Club members only on CalHiSports.com. Some of the upcoming all-state teams plus all state record book updates will be for Gold Club members only. Please help us out today by becoming a member of our Gold Club so you can see all of our great content. For more on special offer to get signed up for $4.99 per month, CLICK HERE.
What We’re Looking For: It’s only too late to send in a nomination once the “publish” button is pushed on one of our all-state posts. You can send a nomination with each athlete’s position, year in school, significant statistics. Make sure to list the school, too. Comparing a player not on the board yet to one who already is listed also can be very important toward eventual selection. Limit each nomination to one page please. Send to: markjtennis@gmail.com or call, text (209) 608-1317 (that is the cell for editor Mark Tennis).
Format: All-state teams will be selected separately for juniors & sophomores, medium schools and small schools. A freshman all-state watch list also will be compiled. A final top 30 overall team then will be done with each of those 30 players featured with a writeup. Second team and third team for large schools and seniors only also will be done. There is a separate category for what we call multi-purpose, which is where we often highlight those baseball players who are top pitchers and top hitters.
Our all-state patch for the 2026 baseball season will be similar to the one for previous years through our partners from BillyTees.com.
Congratulations to all of the following all-state nominees currently on our board for the various 2026 all-state baseball teams:
