Our goal at PH is to always make sure we provide coverage to as many prospects as possible. With so many good players, it's only natural that we miss a player here and there. With the high school season, closely approaching, we want to make sure we identify as many players as possible that are set to have an impact this season. In this article, a follow-up to under-covered Prospects Part 1 we highlight some of our least covered players, that are deserving of attention.
