As the first couple weeks of the high school season are wrapping up, which included a variety of tournaments across the country and the always talent-filled PG High School Showdown, we’ve got the first update of the spring to the PG National High School Top 50. While there’s a ton of movement throughout the teams on this list, many teams from the northern parts of the country have still yet to get going this spring so many were moved by the success, or lack thereof, of the teams from the warm-weather regions that have been playing already.

Starting at the top, there was no movement among the first seven teams in the rankings as they’ve combined to go 45-2 in the early spring. Orange Lutheran (Calif.), the No. 1 team in the rankings, is 7-1 through their first eight games with five of those wins coming against teams in the top-30 and two of them coming against top-10 teams. No. 2 IMG Academy (Fla.) is coming off a championship finish at the PG High School Showdown, No. 3 Stoneman Douglas (Fla.) looks like the cohesive team that won a national title a year ago, No. 4 Orchard Lake St. Mary’s (Mich.) has yet to play a game and No. 5 Hamilton (Ariz.) has some impressive wins early on.



No. 6 Buford (Ga.) has started out 10-0 like many expected with wins over two of Florida’s more talented teams this spring while No. 7 Bishop Gorman (Nev.) has been dominant and sits just a game behind at 9-0. Barbe (La.) jumps up into the No. 8 position as they’ve started the year at an impressive 15-0 while outscoring opponents 150-16, Southlake Carroll (Texas) holds strong at No. 9 with an 8-2 record that includes wins over two top-20 teams and Calvary Christian (Fla.) rounds out the top-10 at 8-0 with only five runs allowed on the early spring.

We’ve got a handful of big movers in the rankings within this first update, and it starts just outside the top-10 as Auburn (Ala.) moves up to No. 11 after a strong 9-1 start and Houston County (Ga.) moves up as many spots to No. 12 behind a pair of big wins and a 10-2 record. Tompkins (Texas) and Sierra Canyon (Calif.) made massive jumps each to No. 13 and No. 14, respectively, as Tompkins has started the spring 13-0 and Sierra Canyon has been pretty dominant as well at 11-0. Santa Margarita Catholic (Calif.) jumped up a few spots to No. 20 after a strong showing at the PG West Coast Showdown, Hoover (Ala.) moved up double-digits to No. 27 after a runner-up finish at the High School Showdown, Yucaipa (Calif.) moves to No. 30 with a 7-2 record and a good win over Harvard-Westlake and Berkeley Prep (Fla.) is 9-0, which helped them move up to No. 33.

Eight new teams joined the national rankings this week and they come from coast to coast. Owasso (Okla.) makes the highest debut of the group this week, coming in at No. 36 with a dominant start in-state while Central Phenix (Ala.), who took home one of the High School Showdown championships, joins at No. 40. The following six teams came in as follows: St. John’s Country Day (Fla.) at No. 42, Stockdale (Calif.) at No. 43, Allatoona (Ga.) at No. 47, Red Mountain (Ariz.) at No. 48, Northwest Rankin (Miss.) at No. 49 and Hartselle (Ala.) at No. 50.

Dropped Out: University Liggett (Mich.), Bartram Trail (Fla.), North Paulding (Ga.), American Fork (Utah), Rockwall (Texas), Grand Blanc (Mich.), Bishop Hendricken (R.I.), Blue Valley Southwest (Kan.)

14u West World Series Scout Notes

Quinton Hall
Article Image
Asher Contreras (2030 | Las Vegas, NV) The 5-foot-10, 170-pound right-handed hitter and outfielder was one of the most dangerous hitters in the tournament for Wow Factor Nv 2030, stuffing the stat sheet while displaying an impressive combination of power and speed. He finished the weekend with 9 hits, including two doubles and a home run, while driving in seven runs and scoring five more. He also swiped three bases and worked three walks, consistently putting pressure on opposing defenses while showing feel for the zone with just one strikeout all weekend. His ability to hit for extra bases while also creating offense on the bases made him one of the most impactful offensive performers at the event.    Braylen Silva (‘30 | NV) RBI 2B for GBG Vegas 14u Red.

Performance Baseball Rolls On

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
Championship teams often reveal themselves when the game isn’t going their way. Performance Baseball 2028/Milwaukee Brewers Scout Team did exactly that. Trailing Florida Burn 2028 Scout through four innings, the Brewers refused to panic. Instead, they relied on timely hitting, consistent pitching, and an unselfish approach at the plate, rallying a five-run fifth inning before pulling away for a 9-5 victory to clinch their spot in the semifinals. The comeback was fueled by contributions throughout the lineup. Six different players drove in runs, including two RBIs each from Aiden Capobianco and Cameron Massey, while Matthew Heredia, Parker Weston, Ethan Smith, and Aj Bonnette each added an RBI of their own. On the mound, Derek Wenzel set the tone with 3.2 solid innings before Ethan Smith shut the door in relief, helping preserve the comeback victory. Although the Brewers have had a...

"Wow" Swings Catch Eyes at 16u Elite

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
On the second day of the 2026 Perfect Game National Elite Championship, one swing turned heads across the ballpark. The next one brought everyone to a stop. With Wow Factor Nation 16U trailing midway through its matchup against Sandlot Scout Team 2028, Micheal O'Connor launched a solo home run to spark the offense. Just one batter later, Aaron Frink stepped into the box and sent another ball over the fence, delivering back-to-back home runs that quickly became one of the most talked about moments of the tournament’s opening days. Parents gathered along the nets, players from previous games stopped to watch, and college scouts turned their attention toward the action as the two towering swings energized the crowd and brought new life to the game. Although Wow Factor Nation ultimately lost 5-3 after a hard-fought performance, the back-to-back home runs served as a reminder of the...

17u WWBA Scout Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4  Day 5 | Day 6 Shea Corona (2027, Brooklyn, N.Y.) showcased some loud stuff out of the bullpen for MLB Breakthrough Series 2027. The New York native and primary shortstop topped out at 93 with the fastball, sitting comfortable in the 90-92 range. Corona paired it with a sharp and tight slider at 81-83, staying on the same plane until late. The pitch plays well already and the delivery is very athletic. The uncommitted right-hander went three scoreless and was in the zone plenty, striking out two while not allowing a walk. '27 SS Moises Gudino (FL) continues to stay red hot, working a long AB & cracking an oppo 2B on the 8th pitch.
