At PrepDig, our purpose remains consistent: Rankings are not a reward for the past, but a projection of future collegiate impact. Each update is an opportunity to recognize athletes elevating their game and moving closer to the next level.
Every edition brings movement, new evaluations, and emerging names proving they belong. Whether you're a college coach identifying talent or a player chasing your next milestone, the Class of 2027 Rankings provide a clear snapshot of where California's rising stars stand today.
