Coral Springs Christian (Fla.) boasts an impressive roster led by presumptive first round pick in right handed pitcher Touki Toussaint. Toussaint isn't the only All-American on the roster, as battery mate Benito Santiago was also selected to represent the East team at the 2013 PG All-American Classic, and they're joined by several other highly talented Division I signees. Thus, the Cavaliers opened the season with lofty expectations and a top ten ranking, opening the season at No. 9. The season started in the middle of February, but the Crusaders didn't really show up until the last day of the month, stumbling to a 1-4 start to the regular season. Since the calendar flipped to March it has been a completely different story, as they've gone 12-1 with their lone loss during that stretch coming at the hands of nationally ranked Clovis (Calif.) at the National High School Invitational. Their continued dominance of late finds them all the way up to No. 3 in the nation after another strong week back at home in Florida.

The other new entrants to this week's top five are No. 4 Cathedral Catholic (Calif.) and No. 5 Sarasota (Fla.). Sarasota just captured the second PG High School Showdown championship. Cathedral Catholic will get their crack at a highly competitive tournament next week when they enter the San Diego Lions tournament, with a potential matchup against No. 13 Rancho Bernardo looming.

No. 25 Temecula Valley (Calif.) enters the fray at No. 25 after an impressive run at the Boras Classic, which saw them not only move on to the championship game on May 3 against the winner of the upcoming Northern Section bracket, but also improved to 12-1 on the season.

Other new additions this week include: No. 30 Lambert (Ga.), No. 44 Vista Murrieta (Calif.), and No. 50 DeSoto Central (Miss.).
