See up to three programs that have rostered players near your ZIP code. Then explore how they align with your goals.
Programs with the most recorded players who listed a hometown within 50 miles of your ZIP (straight-line), on campuses within 300 miles. "All included levels" means D3, D2, NAIA and non-Power D1. Your position only affects the estimated openings. This is geographic history, not a fit ranking.
Our data set isn't 100% complete. Some schools and seasons aren't included yet, so a program missing from your results doesn't mean it has no players from your area. See what's included

How these numbers work
Built from public college baseball rosters, 2016–2026. "Players" means distinct people; "player–program records" count a player once at each college where he appears. A hometown is the one listed on a roster — it doesn't tell us where a player was recruited or whether he came straight from high school. Divisions and conferences are each program's current ones. Counts include only players we could match; shares are of recorded players. "Non-Power" D1 means outside the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12 and SEC. Data last updated October 31, 2026.
These public pages show aggregate results, not individual player names. Towns, high schools and college-to-college paths are shown only with at least 5 players.
