The National Underclassmen has finished the initial state rankings. Based on the state rankings we have expanded the Regional Midwest Top40 to a Midwest Top60. The 20 additions to the new Midwest Top60 have been bolded. Each of additional 20 players is now eligible for inclusion in the new NUC Ultimate150 which will come out once all the regional rankings have been expanded. When the NUC Five-Star Academies are completed the state rankings will be updated. 
Ohio now leads the way with 17 players in the Midwest Top60 followed closely by Illinois with ten representatives. Michigan and Missouri are hot on their heels with six players each ranked in the Midwest Top60. There are 12 players currently in the Midwest Top60 that have attended an NUC event. Players are listed in alphabetical order.
