Thanks to yet another 4-0 week, another Southeastern Conference series win, and another sweep of a ranked team, the Texas Longhorns remained No. 1 in D1Baseball’s updated top 25.

Texas topped UTRGV 11-4 on Tuesday April 15 before sweeping then No. 8 Auburn over the weekend. The Longhorns won Thursday’s affair 3-2, then pummeled the Tigers on Friday and Saturday. Texas took the series with an 8-3 win on Friday then completed the sweep on Saturday with a 14-2 run rule win.

The sweep was Texas’ fourth in SEC play. Texas has not yet lost a series this season.

Texas plays its only road midweek game of the season on Tuesday when it heads down IH-35 to face the Texas State Bobcats in San Marcos. Texas State defeated Texas 5-3 on April 1 in their meeting in Austin.

Following that midweek, the Texas A&M Aggies come to town in a long awaited affair. Inside Texas will host a tailgate for the Friday 7 p.m. game with location details forthcoming. Texas A&M began the season ranked No. 1 even after the Longhorns swiped Jim Schlossnagle from College Station. Michael Earley’s ballclub tumbled to start the season and currently sit at 23-16 and 8-10 in SEC play. However, A&M has found its stride in recent weeks, taking series at Tennessee, versus South Carolina, and at Arkansas.

The Longhorns sit atop the SEC standings at 16-2, three full games ahead of second place Arkansas.

Other SEC teams in the top 25 include No. 5 Arkansas, No. 6 Tennessee, No. 7 LSU, No. 9 Vanderbilt, No. 10 Georgia, No. 11 Auburn, No. 14 Oklahoma, No. 18 Alabama, and No. 23 Ole Miss. Louisville, who issued the Longhorns one of their five losses this year, is No. 19.
