1. Columbus (Fla.)

Previous Ranking: No. 1
It’s been more of the same for Columbus, as it leans on one of the most talented rosters in the nation. Led by twin Duke signees Cameron and Cayden Boozer, as well as junior forwards Caleb Gaskins and Jaxon Richardson, The 27-3 Explorers have won their fourth consecutive state title and will be favorites to win nationals.

2. Roosevelt (Calif.)

Previous Ranking: No. 3 (+1)
Amidst its CIF State title run, Roosevelt has leapfrogged Harvard-Westlake for the No. 2 spot nationally. The Mustangs beat Westlake in the regional semifinals and then took down ranked Notre Dame in the regional finals. Roosevelt, led by elite combo guard Brayden Burries, will take on Archbishop Riordan for a state title this Saturday.

3. Harvard-Westlake (Calif.)

Previous Ranking: No. 2 (-1)
Harvard-Westlake fell to Roosevelt in the CIF State regional semifinals 71-59, bringing its record to 30-3. It was a terrific season for Duke small forward signee Nikolas Khamenia and Co., though the Wolverines weren’t able to conquer the postseason this time around.

4. Hoover (Ala.)

Previous Ranking: No. 6 (+2)
Hoover completed its perfect 35-0 season last week with a win over Florence in the Alabama 7A state finals. The Buccaneers have now won three state titles in a row. There were hardly any scores for Hoover this season as it overwhelmed opponents on both sides of the ball all year long.

5. Paul VI Catholic (Va.)

Previous Ranking: No. 7 (+2)
After defeating No. 9 Gonzaga to win the WCAC championship, Paul VI Catholic couldn’t win two titles in a row as it fell to Bishop O’Connell in the VISAA state tournament semifinals at the end of February. At 29-6, the Panthers put together an incredible season, led by junior five-star shooting guard Jordan Smith Jr. and senior power forward Jaquan Womack.

6. William J. Brennan (Texas)

Previous Ranking: No. 4 (-2)
Brennan’s quest for a state title was foiled in the 6A Division-I semifinals, falling 65-57 to Bellaire, which went on to lose to Duncanville in the championship game.

Previous Ranking: No. 5 (-2)
Allen’s season came to an end in the Fort Worth ISD regional quarterfinals against Plano East.

9. Montverde Academy (Fla.)

Previous Ranking: No. 10 (+1)
Montverde Academy is losing legendary head coach Kevin Boyle at the conclusion of this season, putting somewhat of a damper on a season that has also seen the Eagles lose a few games down the stretch.

10. Perry (Ariz.)

Previous Ranking: No. 8 (-2)
