Final HS Top 50 Rankings

Tyler Russo

Cam McElwaney

We’ve reached the end of yet another high school season, which saw dramatic finishes and big storylines in a number of states, and it means that we’re now at the point of releasing this final Top 50, along with regional team rankings, national players of the year, state players of the year, and a first in three teams of ‘High School All-Americans’, awarded based on a number of things.

Starting a look at the Final HS Top 50, it does look a little different than the preseason rankings, which is normal given no preseason rankings are perfect, but there are a lot of familiar faces up near the top as SIX teams that started the year in the Top 10 will finish in the Top 10 (a pretty impressive feat). There are plenty of teams that either underperformed or overperformed, as we don’t see some names that have been staples in the rankings, but it made room for those across the country that put together one of their best years in program history throughout ’23.

Stoneman Douglas (Fla.) finished the year 29-0, just dominating their way to yet another state title in Florida’s 7A, which led them to finishing the year at the top spot and as a result, crowns them the National Champions for 2023. Just behind them, in the 2-5 range, were teams that would have a strong case in just about any other year. Barbe (La.) won their state title on a true storybook finish to close the year out 39-1. IMG Academy (Fla.) went 25-0 in a gauntlet of a schedule, but they are unable to complete in the postseason which left them vulnerable to losing out on the top spot. Bishop Gorman (Nev.) only lost a pair of games on the year and had one of their best rosters in program history when you look at the output from top to bottom. Archbishop Moeller (Oh.) had a rocky time in a few games in the middle of the spring, but only lost those few games and went on to win the state’s top state title with a really strong group.

The rest of the High School Top 50 is littered with both state champs and those that had very good springs as a whole, but fell short ahead of their goal, and so many of those are deserving of in-depth recognition. It’s been another outstanding year for high school baseball and we appreciate all that follow along; please be sure to tune into social channels over the course of this week as we highlight some of the countries’ top teams and players from the spring season.

Class of 2027 Rankings Risers

Kyler Peterson

Complete Class of 2027 Rankings With the end of the summer and fall seasons behind us, it was time for a quick refresh of the 2027 class rankings. Below you'll be able to read about some of the biggest risers up the board, led by North Carolina outfielder John Hucko who jumped more than 110 spots to now sit at No. 20 overall. John Hucko, OF, Charlotte, N.C. Previous Rank: 132 | Current Rank: 20 Hucko makes a huge leap into the top-20 players in the class after a dominating showing in Jupiter. It’s as good of a left-handed swing as you’ll come across with pretty easy impact to all parts. He’s a supreme athlete with all the tools to play center long term and is a present plus runner. Hucko is a name that cemented his prospect status in Jupiter and will be a name to follow for next year’s MLB Draft. Elyjah Mason, SS, Lake Forest, Calif. Previous Rank: 71 |...

National All State Preview: Week 1

Hannah Jo Groves

This weekend, teams from all around the country in the 10U, 12U and 14U divisions will converge on the Houston area for the 2026 PG National All-State Select Championships. The 10U division will have 22 teams, 12U will have 23 and 14U will have 22. All ages have many different states represented - from Hawaii, to the Pacific Northwest, to Arizona, to New England, to Carolina to Florida and many more. “National All-State brings together the best players in the country across Houston,” national crosschecker and northeast scouting director, John McAdams, said. “It’s a fun atmosphere for ultimate bragging rights amongst all the regions the PG platform reaches domestically while serving as a good litmus test for myself, Jheremy Brown and Tyler Russo to see the players. We get another glimpse at the end of the year as we start to formulate our initial thoughts on the...

Tyler Henninger

PG Draft Content Hub With the fall season winding down and the winter months approaching, it is time for another draft board update. After getting more live looks and gathering information from the fall action across the country, we have expanded the board to a Top-200. The class continues to feature an intriguing mix of arms from both the prep and college ranks, along with an enticing position player pool. There is still plenty of time for new names to emerge and established prospects to continue to improve their draft stock, but here is where things stand as we head into the winter. * denotes draft eligible sophomore Rk.

College Fall Notebook: November 6

Craig Cozart

Virginia Cavaliers 2026 In Review: Under the leadership of first year Head Coach Chris Pollard, the Cavaliers won 37 games which was the second most victories by a first-year coach in program history. Virginia went (37-23) finishing tied for 8th in the ACC and earned an at-large bid to the Hattiesburg Regional. They fielded a talented offense that averaged over 8-runs per game, highlighted by AJ Gracia and Eric Becker who were both selected on Day 1 of the 2026 MLB Draft. While the defensive squad wasn’t quite as elite as usual, they were ultra-competitive on the mound with a strong rotation and lock down bullpen. With plenty of talent returning for Pollard and his staff in ’27, they should be a force on a national level once again. Impact Returners: Senior Antonio Perrotta (.266/.459/.431, 5 HR, 6 2B, 24 RBI) experienced...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 70

Ron Wolforth

That Off-Season Program Wasn't Built for Your Son. It Was Built for Nobody. The Harsh Reality of Skill Development · Part 2 of 5 Somewhere right now, a pitcher is starting a twelve-week off-season program. It came from his travel team. Or a trainer. Or a big leaguer's Instagram. It has phases and a logo, and every kid in the building got the same one. Here is the harsh reality. That program was written before anybody looked at your son. It doesn't know he exists. It was built for the average pitcher... and the average pitcher does not exist. A Template Fixes Somebody's Problem. Maybe Not His. Every pitcher who is stuck is stuck for a reason. We call that reason his constraint... the thing that is actually limiting him right now. For one kid it is strength. For the next it is mobility. For the next it is a mechanical inefficiency, or an arm that isn't recovering, or a body that...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 69

Ron Wolforth

Your Son's April Arm Injury is Being Scheduled Right Now The Harsh Reality of Skill Development - Part 1 of 5 Let me start this series with something most people in baseball won't say out loud. In my experience, a great many of the arm problems we will see next April are being set up right now... in October, November and December. Not necessarily because a young pitcher is throwing too much. Often it's because of what happens when he stops. Here is the pattern. I have watched it for more than thirty years. The fall season ends. The arm is tired, so the family does what seems like the responsible thing. They shut it down. No throwing. For a lot of kids, no anything. Weeks go by. The holidays come and go. Then somebody looks at a calendar in January and realizes tryouts are three weeks away. Suddenly, an arm that has done nothing since October is asked to go from zero to game...
