#1 Alta
Jaxon Johnson Jaxon Johnson 6'8" | SF Alta | 2024 State #106 Nation UT is really good and Nash Hink and Ace Reiser Ace Reiser 6'0" | PG Alta | 2024 State UT are tough. They have a fun one against Brighton on Tuesday.

#3 Lehi
Cooper Lewis Cooper Lewis 6'1" | PG Lehi | 2024 State UT and company can beat you in many ways, especially with their outside shooting.
#4 Timpview
One of the surprises this year and James Rust James Rust 6'5" | CG Timpview | 2023 State UT is having a great senior year and Dean Rueckert Dean Rueckert 6'7" | SF Timpview | 2026 State UT is showing that he is the premier wing in the state.

#9 Cottonwood
Has shown flashes but they need more from Chris Cox Chris Cox 6'7" | SF AZ Compass Prep | 2024 State AZ and Aiden Oliphant.
#10 Cedar Valley
Slowly slipping and they have talent. Ty Christensen and Jax Allen Jax Allen 6'4" | CG Orem | 2025 State #391 Nation UT need to show more if they’re going to get big wins and stay in the Top 10.
