With 250 players, there are bound to be players that saw their rankings drop, but also players that saw their stock rise.    There were 64 new players and here are some of the standout newcomers. No surprise to see 10 new prep high level players.   <h2>Here are 10 newcomers for this HS season: (All fall in the top-40) </h2>   [player_tooltip player_id='1068563' first='Trent' last='Pierce'] AZ Compass Prep   An athletic wing forward with great size and skill.

[player_tooltip player_id='1673610' first='Bryan' last='Ndonga'] Bella Vista Prep   A freaky long power forward with some serious springs.
