2022 Positional Rankings: SF’s

<p>The new 2022 rankings are out.</p> <p>This season ended up being a short AIA season, a full Grind Session season, a condensed CAA season and a longer AAU season with showcase formats.</p> <p>This 2022 class is hoping the same thing doesn’t happen to them as the 2021 class and have a few live periods in the summer. Either Section-7 or AAU tournaments. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>We look at the Top-10 SF’s in the 2022 class:</p> <p>1.

[player_tooltip player_id="827015" first="Justin" last="Shorts"] <strong>Glenview College Prep </strong></p> <p>-An undersized physical wing loves attacking the basket.
