Skyline 14 Royal Erin owned the top spot in the rankings since February, however, it’s Legacy 14-1 Adidas ending the season there after taking down the North Texas club in the 14 Open final at nationals in Indy. Legacy capped an amazing season with the gold medal and its second national championship after also earning gold at AAUs in Orlando. Legacy’s other achievements this year included winning the Nike Classic, MEQ and the JVA SummerFest to go with second-place showings at Triple Crown and the Sunshine Classic.

The results in Indy weighed heavily in shaping the final Top 50. It’s like the NFL, NBA or MLB, where the ultimate goal isn’t putting up the best record during the regular season, it’s winning a championship when it’s all said and done. So no matter what happened during the regular season, if Team A eliminated Team B from medal contention during challenge or gold bracket play, then Team A is always going to be ranked ahead of Team B without exception.

There was a good amount of shake up because of it. Boiler Jrs 14 Gold, Elevation 14 Case, 1United 14 Blue and Circle City 14 Purple all climbed into the Top 10 to end the year. Absolute 14 Black made a huge push, rising from No. 26 to No. 11. AZ Sky 14G went from No. 22 to No. 13, and PineappleHP 14U rose from No. 28 to No. 15.
