14 U and 8th Grade USA National Rankings - comparison of IndiHoops and Coast 2 Coast

I looked at IndiHoops and Coast 2 Coast rankings for 14U/8th grade vs. my own calculations and I have attached them below.  I don't know how they do their rankings but I would guess that they are subjective.  I agree that these are all fine teams but some of the teams listed just don't make my top 50.

Here's the comparison.  Judge for yourself.

NR = not ranked

HM = honorable mention

Blog stats

JULY 14U/8th Grade USA Rankings

I have updated my 14U/8th grade rankings prior to some big tournaments coming up.  The top 25 are all rock solid teams and any one of them could win any of the upcoming tournaments.  I am not going to differentiate the 14U and 8th grade ratings because that would take a whole lot of work to investigate all of the teams that might have 15 or 16 year olds playing on an 8th grade team because they have been held back for academic or other reasons. The Larry Hughes Basketball Academy Select team coached by Eric Bain (my grandson plays for him) is my anchor to these ratings at 100 (now ranked 249).  I have tried to list teams by state but some may be associated with the tournament state that they played in. So enjoy the ratings and let me know what you think: July 18 Rankimgs Rank Team   State Rating 1 Maryland's Finest MD 132.4 2 New World    MD 131.8 3 Sabers Lock Up CA 131...
