Recently, Baseball America's Nathan Rode ranked the top high school teams in the nation over the last decade and gave the top spot to Chatsworth. Here is what he had to say:
1. Chatsworth (Calif.) HS
The Chancellors have won six City Section titles (2001, 2003-04, 2007-09) and had seven Top 50 finishes since 2000. They also won their league in 2000-01, 2003-08 and 2010. Most notably, they finished atop the national high school rankings in 2003 and 2004, with the latter club featuring two freshmen now on the verge of the big leagues: Matt Dominguez (Marlins) and Mike Moustakas (Royals).
Chatsworth was followed on Rode's list by Owasso, Okla.; The Woodlands, Texas; Bishop Gorman, Las Vegas; Columbus, Ga.; Farragut, Knoxville, Tenn.; Flanagan, Pembroke Pines, Fla.; Parkview, Lilburn, Ga.; Moody, Corpus Christi, Texas, and Horizon, Scottsdale, Ariz.
