Based on what?

Hublitz has been a consensus top 2 pole in this class from pretty much everyone I've heard. #8 seems perfectly reasonable in that regard.

In terms of performance during the high school season, Colsey has been as productive as any attack man out there (with the possible exception of Duenkel), and he put up 6 goals in the Maverik Showtime all-star game. I'm slightly lower on him than #4 overall, but he's definitely a worthy top 10 recruit.

Jeffrey is certainly a surprise at #1 but, that's partly due to him not playing as many events (he's a three-sport athlete so he doesn't play any of the fall or winter events that most of these kids do) and thus being off people's radars. I don't think the guys who make these rankings have a compelling reason to rig the rankings for a public school kid from CT who doesn't even play in Fairfield County; more often than not all of these publications cater to the private schools and prep factories.

FWIW I'd have Duenkel #1, but I think all three of the Eclipse kids are really good. The 2024 class also generally has more parity than I've seen in a while; you could make a top 10 list at random with any of the kids in the top 30 and it wouldn't look unreasonable.
