Ole Miss center fielder Kylan Becker

After a successful season-opening weekend in Orlando, Fla., Ole Miss has entered the Top 25.

The Rebels, 3-1, pulled in at No. 24 in this week's Fastpitch News Top 25. Ole Miss won three of four games at the Friends of Jaclyn Tournament, defeating host Central Florida (3-0), nationally-ranked Minnesota (3-1) and George Mason (8-0). The Rebels' only loss at the four-day event came last Friday via a 4-2 setback to Ohio State, who is ranked one spot ahead of Ole Miss this week at No. 23 in the Fastpitch News Top 25.

Ole Miss is one of eight Southeastern Conference teams ranked inside this week's Fastpitch News Top 25.

The Rebels flew to California on Tuesday, as they prepare for a big weekend in the Los Angeles area. They will open things up on Thursday with a single game versus Loyola Marymount set for a 4 p.m. CT first pitch. On Friday, Ole Miss will begin a stretch in which it will play four games in two days in the Stacey Winsberg Memorial Tournament hosted by 2nd-ranked UCLA. When Ole Miss and UCLA square off Saturday evening in Westwood, it will be a rematch of the 2017 Los Angeles Super Regional.

The Rebs will play Boise State in Long Beach on Sunday before flying back to Mississippi.

Ole Miss won't play a home game until March 1, when Pittsburgh and Nicholls State spend the weekend in Oxford.
