2026 Pennsylvania Rankings Update

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After a busy June and July with hundreds of hours spent in the gym evaluating and covering prospects in the Keystone State it was time to release our rankings for the class of 2026. There is a changing of the guard <strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1454254' first='Luca' last='Foster']</em></strong> being our number one prospect in the class in the state. He is followed by VCU Ram commit <strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1406768' first='Sammy' last='Jackson']</em></strong>. The top ten is a mix of prospects representing the Philadelphia Catholic League, Philly Public League, and PAISAA (Pennsylvania Independent Schools Athletic Association). The highest ranked WPIAL prospect is <strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='2398507' first='Josh' last='Pratt']</em></strong> at 16. <strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='2845070' first='Mykel' last='Bruce-McCrommon']</em></strong> had the biggest jump from unranked to number 25. As many in the audience know a lot of the best prospects in the state play their basketball at non PIAA schools so this means we spend our time splitting coverage between that and PIAA in season. Nine of the top 10 prospects played this summer on the shoe circuit level whether it was EYBL, UAA, or 3SSB. The talent in the state grows with the addition of out of state prospects who attend schools in state which only makes the talent across the board better and will create more opportunities for prospects to get seen and receive recognition. There is also a handful of prospects who either sky rocketed their way up the rankings or were unranked prospects who play over the last several months caught our attention and we thought is was imperative that they deserved recognition for their hard work. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
