High School Top 50 Update: April 29

Tyler Russo
Cam McElwaney
With another week in the books across the country in the high school baseball season, we have another update to the National Top 50. The southern states are rolling through the playoffs as the weeks unfold along with northern states starting to get to the back half of their schedule as the summer is quickly approaching.

The top-10 holds firm in this update as Venice (FL) continues to hold onto the top spot after rattling off W’s since returning home to Florida. Barbe (LA) comes in at No. 2 this week after being ranked at No. 3 a week ago and sport a 37-1 record with 36 straight wins. Orange Lutheran (CA) drops one spot to No. 3 and a pair of Texas schools round out the top-5 as Tomball is at No. 4 and Aledo is at No. 5. 5-9 is the exact same this week as last as IMG Academy (FL) comes in at No. 6, Trinity (KY) is at No. 7, Harvard-Westlake (CA) is at No. 8 and Grapevine (TX) is at No. 9. Corona (CA) is welcomed back into the top-10 after a win against Norco (CA) earlier this week and the rest of that series will unfold in the coming days.



The Stony Brook (NY) continues to jump in these updates and currently sits at 17-1 on the season. St. Laurence (IL) and Center Grove (IN) make big jumps into the top-30 in the country and have dominated their opponents so far this spring. Pope (GA) continues to rattle off wins and move up the rankings as well as Queen Creek (AZ) taking over the top spot in Arizona after a win over Casteel (AZ) last week.

We welcome back some familiar faces to the Top-50 this week as a trio of teams break back in, all of which have been in these rankings in some fashion this spring as well as a new name to the Top-50. Stoneman Douglas (FL) is just winning again and comes back in at No. 45. Brother Martin (LA) has been dominant through the late stages of the season and breaks into the Top-50 at No. 47 this update. Dorman (SC) continues rattling off W’s and is back at No. 48 as well as Gloucester Catholic (NJ) looking dominant since returning home to New Jersey.

The movement in the weekly updates isn’t as substantial as the bi-weekly updates but we still had some big movers in this update. We’ll be back again next week with another update to the National Top-50 along with regional updates rolling out as well.

Midwest Elite Scout Notes

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
Adan Rojas (2027, Streamwood, Ill.) turned in one of the more dominant pitching performances of the weekend, striking out 10 over 5 innings while consistently dictating at-bats. The fastball worked 77–80 mph, topping at 82, and he showed the ability to elevate and miss bats when needed. His slider at 67–70 mph played as a real separator pitch, generating uncomfortable swings and late decisions. Showed strong tempo on the mound and never allowed hitters to settle in rhythm. What stood out most was his ability to maintain attack mode while still showing feel for sequencing.   Cruz Jaramillo (2030, Mount Pleasant, Wisc.) brought consistent energy to the lineup all weekend and was a tough out from start to finish. Finished with 8 hits over the tournament. The swing is compact with a strong intent to impact, and he does a nice job staying on time with his stride. When he...
