HS Rankings Update: May 25

Photo: David Horn, JSerra Catholic (Perfect Game)
It’s only been a week since the last rankings update, but with state titles starting to be claimed in places all over the country, we’ve got major shakeups throughout the Top 50 this week. We don’t see a change at the top, as Stoneman Douglas (Fla.) won their second consecutive Florida 7A title in impressive fashion, 10-0 in title game, and finishes their season at a record of 30-2 with some impressive wins over the course of the spring. Orchard Lake St. Mary’s (Mich.) continues to knock on the door, now at 34-0 as they near their playoff stretch in Michigan. It’s a new face at No. 3 as Hamilton (Ariz.) finished out claiming the 5A State Title in Arizona, also in impressive fashion and closing out a strong resume out West. IMG Academy (Fla.) sits at No. 4 in this recent update while JSerra Catholic (Calif.) climbs all the way up to No. 5 after winning their first Southern Section title and avenging an otherwise tough start to the year.
 
Some new faces litter the rest of the top-10 as Providence (N.C.) moves to 31-0 on the year and sits just a single win away from their state championship game, while Rockwall-Heath (Texas) moves up to No. 7 after staying alive in the 6A Texas playoffs and Hartselle (Ala.) climbs up to No. 8 after winning the 6A State Title in Alabama. Orange Lutheran (Calif.) and Bishop Gorman (Nev.) round out the top-10 for now, with tons of talent on their rosters and impressive resumes, although they fell short in their respective chases for titles.
 
Plenty of movers fill out the next batch of teams in the rankings and they are as follows: Berkeley Prep (Fla.) is up to No. 11 as they play for a state title in Florida this week, Jackson Prep (Miss.) is up to No. 13 as they claimed their fifth-straight state title, North Oconee (Ga.) is all the way up to No. 14 after winning the 4A state title in Georgia with a record of 39-1, Lake Travis (Texas) is up to No. 15 after they continue to push forward in the Texas playoffs, Tampa Jesuit (Fla.) surges all the way up to No. 17 after claiming the 5A Florida state title and Central Phenix (Ala.) moves all the way up to No. 19 after winning the 7A state title in Alabama to go with their High School Showdown championship earlier this spring.
 
Seven new teams joined the rankings this week as teams’ resumes continue to either improve or they claim titles in their respective states: Doral Academy (Fla.) at No. 40 after winning the 6A title in Florida, Pope (Ga.) at No. 41 after winning the 6A title in Georgia, Basic (Nev.) at No. 42 after winning the 5A title in Nevada, Charlotte Christian (N.C.) at No. 43 after winning a 4A title in North Carolina, Woodstock (Ga.) at No. 45 after winning the 7A title in Georgia, Ridge Point (Texas) at No. 49 after knocking off Tompkins to advance in the 6A playoffs in Texas and American Fork (Utah) at No. 50 after advancing deep into the 6A playoffs in Utah.
 
With just a few weeks left in the season around the country, as most of the Northern states move into their respective playoffs, we move closer to our end of season awards, which will include crowning a National Champion, a final High School Top 50, the top team and player in each state, and National Player of the Year awards with a release date yet to be formally set.

Midwest All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley
Article Image
MIDWEST REGION (KS, MO, OK, AR, NE, IA, WI, MN, SD, ND) The Midwest Region featured only two 2025 Perfect Game All-Americans in catcher Carson May and shortstop Keaton Neal, both from the Kansas City area, but if the team were to be re-selected today there might be three or four more players honored.  The theme of the Midwest Region this year has been the number of players who have improved significantly during the late summer and especially the fall, which bodes well for this spring. In addition, the 2027 class in the Midwest Region appears to be solid as well and will have many All-American worthy players. St. Thomas Aquinas HS of Kansas is the top ranked school from the Midwest Region, checking in at 38th overall in the Perfect Game Pre-Season High School Rankings.  Edmond Memorial HS of Oklahoma gives the region two teams as they start 47th nationally. C – Carson May...

Grady Emerson (‘26 TX) laces this ball to right for a walk off single. Clean lefty stroke. Looks the part both sides of the ball. Checks all the boxes. Will be scouted heavily this Spring. #PGHS #HookEm commit. #PGDraft pic.twitter.com/wXvdHdgqME — Perfect Game Texas (@Texas_PG) February 6, 2026 Grady Emerson (2026, Argyle, Texas) had a strong showing throughout the opening week of high school baseball out here in Texas. Works good at-bats and is always a tough out in general. Makes all the plays at short and just has the look of a future big leaguer. He does all the little things right. Bat to ball will play at a high level and there is still a lot more power to project on here. There is a reason why Emerson is one of, if not the most highly coveted high school prospect in the 2026 class and it’s easy to see why. Currently committed to Texas, but has the potential to...

Twelve teams, split between the 16u and 18u divisions, participated in this event.  With two pool games, and then a move into single elimination bracket play,  some players used this tournament as  their last warm-up before kicking off their high school seasons, while others were tuning up for the busy Spring and Summer travel season. In the 16u division, it was the Iowa Aries 16u Ce Fire Red taking the championship, with Southeast Iowa Allstars 18u Gold Miller earning the crown in the 18u division.

Ohio Valley All Region & Top Tools

OHIO VALLEY REGION (IL, IN, KY, MI, OH) The Ohio Valley Region has a healthy amount of top-level talent, as it features five Perfect Game All-Americans in shortstop Ethan Bass, third baseman TJ McQuillan, two-way stand out Matt Ponatoski and right-handed pitchers Shawn Sullivan and Grayson Willoughby.  The 2027 class looks very strong as well, especially in Illinois. A couple of things are missing from the Ohio Valley All-Region team, though.  The first is the two best outfielders in the region, as 2027 Illinois outfielder Sebastian Wilson is attending IMG Academy in Florida and fellow 2027 outfielder Noah Goettke from Ohio is attending P27 Academy in South Carolina.  Also missing are any players from Michigan, which enjoyed a dominant run of top prospects in recent years largely behind the Lake Orchard St. Mary’s HS program.  2027 catcher Broder Katke (Brother...

College Players of the Week: Feb. 17

Perfect Game/Player of the Week: Tyce Armstrong, IF, Baylor Opening Day always has a special feel with the sights, sounds and smells bringing back memories of days gone by. But no one that made their way to Magnolia Field at Baylor Ballpark could have imagined what they would witness in the Baylor Bears first game against New Mexico State. Enter 6-4/228, redshirt senior 1B Tyce Armstrong with his power stroke and flare for the dramatic. Transferring in after a successful career at UT Arlington, the Magnolia, TX native would etch his name in the record books with an incredible day at the plate. Armstrong would hit three grand slams in the game, becoming just the second player in NCAA history to accomplish this feat in a single game. His three home runs tied a program record, and his 12 RBIs set a new standard for the Bears. Beyond that, Armstrong matched the 50-year-old record previously...
