3. Cranston West (15-9)
Cranston West has had an up-and-down season, but are the most
experienced playoff team left in the other bracket and that playoff history might take them to the championship. Senior pitcher Mia Crudale (13-8 record, 120 strikeouts) has kept her team in the thick of the race, much like she did last year. While only batting .302 with 14 home runs as a team, with seniors Sienna Nardelli, Mia Santomassimo, and sophomore Mia Baffoni leading the way.

6. Smithfield (13-8)
The Sentinels season ended in a 4-3 loss to Cranston West in the RIIL playoffs, but Smithfield quietly had a resurgence this season behind first-year head coach Mary Menucci. Sophomore pitcher Crystal Cacador (11-8, 2.10 ERA) had a commendable season as one of the team’s young leaders.
7. East Providence (10-12)
Dvision 1 Player of the Year’ candidate Katie Solitro led the Townies to a solid season without much pitching firepower and earned respect from the league as a team to watch out for next year. East Providence has batted .304 with nine home runs this season behind senior Sylvie Patterson and the young bats of freshman Ella Grimley and sophomore Trinity Provencher. The Townies lost to Pilgrim, 4-0, in the Division 1 playoffs.
8. Prout (12-8)
The Crusaders were bit by the injury bug at the end of their season and limped into the playoffs as the No. 5 seed, but lost their first game to Cranston West, then dropped their final game to East Providence. Prout had a promising season lined up with sophomore pitcher Lucy Kaiser, but both she and Kelsea Flaherty, a top hitter in the lineup, pulled up injured for the playoffs.
9. Coventry (11-8)
The Oakers just was never really put it together, with a record of 5-6 in the month of May. Having earned the No. 6 seed based on RPI, the Oakers beat Moses Brown in the play-in round, but then dropped their first game of double elimination 5-1 to Chariho, followed by an elimination loss 2-1 to Smithfield.
10. Westerly (11-11)
Ella Keegan is the team’s best returning hitter and paired with junior Bella Mazzarese, will lead the charge offensively. Westerly will have to figure out how to replace all of the seniors they lost, which made up for 50 percent of the team's run production in 2024. The Bulldogs play a heavy Division II schedule by choice, but the rest of the division is waiting to see how they fare against top Division I teams.
