It began in September with our prep profiles and grew into profiles of entire classes and associations. But now, four months later, we have done our best to cover the top prospects at every level of high school and prep school basketball in New England. Did we get everyone? Of course not.

The winter season is now about a third of the way done and we have finally profiled all of the top prospects in all of New England's twelve different divisions including all six classes of the NEPSAC and all six of the public state associations.

Bishop Hendricken lost a ton from last year’s team, including Justin Mazzulla to George Washington, but the return of Tyrone Weeks gives them another scholarship…

Next up in our tour of New England’s six state associations is Maine’s MPA. While not quite at the same level as its counterparts in Connecticut or Massachusetts, this is a relatively strong year in the MPA, led by a fairly deep crop of college prospects in the senior class. Terion Moss is, without question, the most decorated player in the state. He won the Gatorade Player of the Year award as a junior, has won consecutive state championships, and…
