It seems as if Campolindo’s Aidan Mahaney (left) has been around forever. He helped Campo win the 2019 D2 state title and his good friend Cade Bennett moved up 25 spots in the first Cal-Hi Sports Hot 100 shuffle for the 2021-22 school year. Photo: Ronnie Flores.

The first 2022 Cal-Hi Sports Hot 100 for the 2021-22 school year is based on evaluations from non-viewing showcases since August, various fall leagues and through MLK weekend of the regular season. These rankings are based on college potential, not high school performance, although the baseline of where we begin with each prospect begins with high school basketball.
We’ll follow this report with our post-summer player rankings for the 2023 (Hot 100) and 2024 (Top 65) classes, in addition to introducing the Class of 2025 (Top 25). In the coming months, we’ll continue publishing our archived Hot 100s as part of the most comprehensive California state player rankings you’ll find on the internet that you can sort through using the easy-to-use dropdown menu below. We’ll continue to roll out more enhanced features on the Hot 100 players where you’ll be able to search through our vast profiles and evaluations. We’ll highlight California’s individual players — past, present, and future — better than it’s ever been done before.
The previous rankings in the 2022 post-summer Hot 100 refers to the player’s position in the previous list we published in August 2021 after the spring 2021 CIF season and the summer viewing period in conjunction with the Hoop Scoop, our partner for boys basketball national player rankings.
