MaxPreps Academy Top 10 presented by the Army National Guard

1. (No. 1 last week) Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.), 21-0
The Pilots will play a Friday game in Ohio at the Flyin' to the Hoop Invitational before heading to the Spalding Hoophall Classic for a Monday showdown with No. 2 Montverde Academy.

2. (2) Montverde Academy (Fla.), 17-0
Before getting to Springfield to face No. 1 Findlay Prep, the Eagles will be headed to another Springfield – the one in Missouri – for the Bass Pro Shops Tournament of Champions. Paul VI (Fairfax, Va.) and St. John Bosco (Bellflower, Calif.) will be the two biggest threats in the Show-Me State.

3. (3) St. Benedict's Prep (Newark, N.J.), 14-0
The Gray Bees will have an opportunity to bolster their resume Sunday at the Spalding Hoophall Classic against No. 10 Montrose Christian.

4. (4) Prime Prep (Dallas), 12-0
The apparently mascot-less Prime Prep program heads to Flyin' to the Hoop this weekend to face Wayne (Huber Heights, Ohio).

5. (5) La Lumiere (LaPorte, Ind.), 18-1
After an easy run through the Midwest Prep Championship last weekend, things will be considerably tougher as the Lakers are also headed to Flyin' to the Hoop. No. 6 Huntington Prep and Trotwood-Madison (Trotwood, Ohio) await in Dayton.

6. (6) Huntington Prep (W.Va.), 17-1
After dropping five spots last week, the Express get their chance to make up some ground with games against No. 5 La Lumiere at Flyin' to the Hoop and prep power New Hampton (N.H.) at the Spalding Hoophall Classic.

7. (7) Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.), 19-2
The Warriors will have their hands full Monday at the Spalding Hoophall Classic against a Simeon (Chicago) squad hungry for a signature win and humbled by a blowout loss last season at the same event.

8. (8) Sunrise Christian Academy (Bel Aire, Kan.), 19-0
The Buffaloes swept a pair of talented Memphis teams over the weekend at the Penny Hardaway Hoop Fest.

9. (NR) Greensboro Day (N.C.), 25-0
Though the Bengals have a glossy record, they don't have the signature victory it will take to rise in the rankings. That could change in the coming weeks with games against NCISAA powers Christ School (Arden), High Point Christian Academy and Wesleyan Christian Academy (High Point).

10. (10) Montrose Christian (Rockville, Md.), 10-3
After losses in three of their last five games, the Mustangs could drastically change the trajectory of the season with a win over No. 3 St. Benedict's Prep on Saturday at the Spalding Hoophall Classic.
