The National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) is an association of baseball writers, broadcasters, and publicists in the United States.[1][2] It was founded in 1962.[1][3][2][4]

The NCBWA compiles a preseason ranking of the top 35 teams in the nation, as voted on by its members. In addition, weekly rankings of the top 30 teams are released throughout the season and after the College World Series.

The NCBWA awards NCBWA preseason All-American awards,[4] the Dick Howser Trophy (Player of the Year),[5][6] Regional Players of the Year awards, and All-America awards.[1][7]

Also the National Coach of the Year is awarded by NCBWA.
