Final 2021 National High School Top 50

The 2021 season was an exciting one as almost every state made their way back toward reality throughout the playing of the high school baseball season. While some states didn’t quite get to finish out their usual state playoffs, many did, and we are able to once again crown a national champion. This year’s national champion, Stoneman Douglas High School out of Parkland, Fla., played six teams, among their very talented Southern-Florida based schedule, that were a part of the national rankings at some point and finished their season 28-2 on their way to Florida’s 7A state title, the largest and potentially most difficult classification in the state.

The rest of the top-5 were all very deserving of this honor as they all were able to finish very impressive seasons in their respective states. Orchard Lake St. Mary’s (Mich.) finishes the year at No. 2 after a 43-1 season in which they took home Michigan’s Division 2 state title and ended the year on a 22-game winning streak. Barbe (La.) closes the year at No. 3 after one of the more storied seasons in the state of Louisiana, finishing 39-2 and capturing the state’s 5A title. Madison Central (Miss.) closes out the year at No. 4 with a 34-2 record and an impressive run to take home the 6A state title in Mississippi, while Thousand Oaks (Calif.) finishes at No. 5 after only losing a single game (29-1) on their way to the Southern Section Division 2 title in California.



This final edition of the High School rankings holds 27 state, or regional, champions and those teams are as follows: *Stoneman Douglas (Fla.), *Orchard Lake St. Mary’s (Mich.), *Barbe (La.), *Madison Central (Miss.), *Thousand Oaks (Calif.), *Rockwall-Heath (Texas), Harvard Westlake (Calif.), *Baylor (Tenn.), Trinity (Ky.), *JSerra Catholic (Calif.), *Jackson Prep (Miss.), *Parkview (Ga.), Auburn (Ala.), *Heritage Hall (Okla.), American Fork (Utah), *Houston County (Ga.), *Buchanan (Calif.), The First Academy (Fla.), St. Joes Montvale (N.J.), Liberty (Ariz.), Barbers Hill (Texas), Blue Valley (Kan.), Roff (Okla.), Blue Valley Southwest (Kan.), Jasper (Ind.), Liberty (Mo.), New Albany (Ohio)

* = Member of the Preseason High School Top 50

The following schools were members of the Preseason High School Top 50 and managed to make both the preseason list and this final edition of the rankings: Stoneman Douglas (Fla.), Orchard Lake St. Mary’s (Mich.), Barbe (La.), Madison Central (Miss.), Thousand Oaks (Calif.), IMG Academy (Fla.), Rockwall-Heath (Texas), Buford (Ga.), Baylor (Tenn.), JSerra Catholic (Calif.), Orange Lutheran (Calif.), Jackson Prep (Miss.), Parkview (Ga.), Lake Travis (Texas), Tampa Jesuit (Fla.), Bishop Gorman (Nev.), Heritage Hall (Okla.), Houston County (Ga.), Buchanan (Calif.), Reagan (Texas), Phillips Academy (Mass.), Malvern Prep (Penn.), Hamilton (Ariz.), Lakeland Christian (Fla.), Calvary Christian Academy (Fla.), Doral Academy (Fla.), Spruce Creek (Fla.), and The Bolles (Fla.).

While this will be the final edition of the High School Top 50 for this calendar year, we will be releasing our High School State Players of the Year tomorrow where we will name a player of the year for each state as well as a National Player of the Year, National Pitcher of the Year and National Two-Way Player of the Year. Thank you for following along with us all season long and we are already looking forward to the 2022 high school season.

15u WWBA Scout Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 Noah Rumley (‘29 NC) has been up to 90 so far in this start w/ 8 Ks in 4 innings of work. Really jumps out of the hand at foot strike w/ some ride to it; has also mixed in a SL w/ horizontal action. #WWBA @PG_Coastal pic.twitter.com/OcU57a3Syl — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) July 21, 2026 Noah Rumley (2029, Summerfield, N.C.) got the ball for GBC Lopez 2029 15u in their final game of pool play and dominated, going up against a tough lineup in the East Cobb Astros. The 6-foot-2 left-handed pitcher ended up going five innings, allowing only one hit and one run, while striking out nine. It’s premium stuff at the 15u level as he worked easily in the upper-80s, topping at 90 mph in the first. The breaking ball showed two-plane shape in the upper-70s as well. There’s a ton of things to like already and even...

Ranked fifth nationally entering the tournament, Florida Burn 2027 Scout left no doubt who the best team was at the 17U BCS National Championship. Burn finished a perfect 9-0 tournament, earning an 11-1 semifinal victory before defeating No. 86-ranked Original Florida Pokers 2027 National, 9-1, Tuesday afternoon at JetBlue Park. Burn seized control early and never looked back in a game that ended after the fifth inning per Perfect Game’s mercy rule. Burn carried its explosive offense into the championship game as Braedon Mackay launched a two-run home run in the first inning, giving his team an early 2-0 lead. Mackay’s home run sparked a five-run opening inning, setting the tone for the rest of the afternoon.

With the completion of the 2026 13u National Showcase, an event that featured some of the best talent the age group has to offer, 42 players came out with the label of "Festivaler" as they received a phone call shortly after the event concluded. Moving back to the University of Tennessee after a two year stay at the University of Virginia, Ole Rocky Top will see a mixed bag of returners; three-timers, new faces and a couple who bridged the gap from the 11u game into the 13u iteration.  Of the 42 players, 9 players call Florida their home base which is the most of any state while Texas (8), California (7) and Georgia (5) are all close behind nearly three-quarters of the players selected.

UBC Midwest X Atlantic Notes: Part 1

Blaine Peterson
Article Image
Jack Postma (2028, Barrington, IL) made an impression in Chicago this week. A 6-foot-5 right hander with a starter pitch mix. Topped out at 93 in his outing at UBC Midwest and pitched at 88-93 for 2 innings on the mound. Slider showed late horizontal bite at its best when finished out front. Change up is a usable third pitch with fading action and ability to miss bats. Clean overall operation in the delivery. Upside with added stability in the arm action. Chance to be one of the top prospects in Illinois and potentially the country with necessary adjustments moving forward.  Connor Basinski (2028, Columbia, IL) an athletic player with 2-way potential. Physicality stands out for a player in the 2028 class. Swung the bat impressively well in Chicago. Hits from a wide stance and stays balanced using strength and leverage to drive the baseball to all fields. Launched a long pull side...

15u WWBA Scout Notes: Day 4

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
15u WWBA Scout Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 Mason Conner (2029, Palestine, Texas) was a force in the middle-of-the-order for Gold Culture. The right-handed hitter starts from a medium stance with in-line feet and a low handset with a low back elbow, utilizes a negative leg lift stride. Strides through and uncoils the lower half well and creates separation in the back shoulder. Solid hand speed with a flat bat plane and feel to leverage and lift. Impacts the ball well with feel to impact and drive. The shortstop showed the power upside belting a two-run homer over the fence in left field and added a two-RBI knock later in the game. Medium 6-foot, 175-pound frame that was consistently on the barrel and showed a good approach at the plate working two walks. Lennon Dunn (2029, Mansfield, Texas) competed and showed the upside on the mound for Stix 2029 Scout. The right-handed pitcher...

Coppy's Corner: July 21 Summer Edition

John Coppolella
Article Image
The amateur players in the Cape Cod Baseball League are the future stars of the 2027 MLB Draft. The league runs from June 13th through August 2nd. Games are played at historic stadiums in Old New England towns. It’s beautiful and charming. Hollywood even made a movie about the Cape Cod League ~25 years ago called Summer Catch. It scored an 8% (!) on Rotten Tomatoes, but, on the plus side, it featured 2001 Jessica Biel in a starring role.  It was so much fun writing Coppy’s Column this spring. My hope is to highlight a pitcher and position player each week from the Cape. And, who knows, maybe somewhere out there Jessica Biel is reading it.    Player of the Week: Coen Niclai – Wareham Gatemen  The Internet tells me that 12 MLB players have come from Alaska, 10 of whom were from Anchorage, and the best of which is Curt Schilling. Niclai, who is also...

FTB National Completes Elite Run

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
Championships are never won in a single game. For FTB National 2027, this one has been in the making for years. An 8-0 victory over Team Elite 17U Scout capped off an unforgettable week at the 2026 Perfect Game 17U National Elite Championship, but according to those inside the dugout, the championship was a product of friendships formed long before the tournament ever began. FTB took their first national elite win in team history, giving one of the nation’s top 2027 teams an elite ending to their 17U summer. “This is a homegrown group,” head coach Will Haynie said. “This team has been together for the last four or five years, and I think a lot of them have been together since the Little League World Series when they were 12. It’s been fun, and a nice little cap off to their 17U summer, especially after winning a big event like this.” That chemistry...
