This week, national media have raised a pair of teams and those teams are now featured in the MaxPreps Top 25 Composite Rankings. Oscar Smith of Chesapeake, Va., gets in thanks to a lift in the PrepNation and USA Today polls, while Brother Rice of Bloomfield Hills, Mich., moves in thanks to entering the USA Today Top 25.
In order to be considered for these rankings, a team must be ranked in
two national polls. If it does not land in all four, the team will be
given a 40 to weigh into its average.
