SoCal Baseball — Playoff Projections

Snapshot from 2026-05-05 · 457 teams

Where each Southern Section baseball team is projected to play in the postseason, based on the official CIF-SS power-index ranking. Updated weekly on Tuesday from the published rankings PDF.

Final Rankings Raw Rankings Playoff Projections All .500 Teams

All .500 Teams projection. Same auto-qualifier rules as the standard projection (Top-16 → D1; below that, league-size tiers determine auto bids: 4-team → top 2, 5–6 → top 3, 7–8 → top 4, 9+ → top 5). The difference: no per-division cap on At Large picks — every team that misses its auto cutoff but finishes .500 or better overall slots into the bracket. D9 absorbs the overflow.

This is not the official CIF-SS bracket structure. The actual bracket caps At Large picks per division and drops the rest. This is an exploratory "who's playoff-eligible by record?" view.

League data scraped from MaxPreps for 426 of 457 teams. 149 teams removed by current rules. 49 At Large picks (sub-cutoff but .500+, no cap). 31 Unverified pending league-data backfill.
