Following one of the biggest high school tournaments of the season, the City of Palms Classic, it’s time to check on the prep boys’ high school rankings.
Montverde Academy kept its impressive hold on the No. 1 ranking by flying through the tournament with wins over No. 4 Paul VI, No. 15 Archbishop Stepinac and No. 3 Long Island Lutheran in the tournament championship. It will be tough to edge out the Eagles for the top spot after their unblemished run to start the season, but the story of the tournament might have been Don Bosco Prep out of New Jersey.
Led by Dylan Harper, the No. 2 recruit in the 2024 class, Don Bosco jumped from outside the rankings to the No. 6 spot after wins over No. 7 Columbus and No. 13 IMG Academy in the tournament’s fifth-place game.
Long Island Lutheran battled all the way to the championship, including a win over No. 5 Link Academy, before falling to Montverde, 73-59. Prolific Prep stayed on Montverde’s heels by picking up two more wins this season to move to 16-1.
