NEW: Washington 2015 Positional rankings By Jordan Johnson, Ryland Spencer, Scott Eklund

Here we take a look at Washington’s top sophomores and a very talented 2015 class. Being that these kids are still extremely young, we keep the rankings board more broad and list players by group, versus exact order with the juniors and seniors. You will see the 2014 and 2015 kids prevalent at the Portland and Seattle Elite Events in (January-March), and on the NEI/Barton Camp and Combine Tour (April-June). Congratulations to all of the athletes on the list, it will be updated continuously. Please let us know of any individuals who we may have missed, as there are a lot of kids still under the radar.

*On a personal note I wanted to give props to Ryland Spencer… He has been a huge addition for us at NEI, and I can’t say enough about the work he is doing for the athletes in the great state of Washington
