The rankings are based on a combination of on-field performance, improvements, athletic intangibles, team influence, college recruiting, potential and overall skill set.

The rankings include only players playing at a Massachusetts High School /or Mass. Prep/Private school. Mass. residents playing at a school outside of Mass. and Postgraduates are recognized below, along with our Watch list.
