2014 NUC East Regional Top 50
It's time for the first installment of the NUC East Regional Rankings. Each member of the Regional Rankings is worth (1-point) towards his eventual signing college. They are also eligible for making the NUC Ultimate175 (Top 175 players in the country). This list will be updated at least two more times prior signing day 2014. The players are listed in alphabetical order by first name.

The Keystone State leads the way with ten prospects in the East Top 50. They are followed closely by Virginia with eight and Maryland/New Jersey with seven representatives each. The rest of the East Regional prospects are from New York (5), District of Columbia (3), Delaware (3), Massachusetts (3), Connecticut (2), New Hampshire (1) and West Virginia (1).
There are 15 NUC alumnus listed in the initial East Regional Top 50. That number should increase once we host our third annual East Five-Star Showcase at Toms River North High School on Sunday April, 7. We expect this camp to be bigger and better than last year!
