With not much changing in the rankings, and most eyes on the 2024 McDonald's All American boys' game roster release, it's time to look at top ranked Montverde Academy's first-half résumé and why it will be tough for any other team to claim the No. 1 ranking this season.

Montverde, featuring three players in the McDonald's game in April, has played a blistering schedule and come out undefeated. Its résumé includes wins over several top-25 opponents:

Nov. 20: No. 14 Wasatch, 88-53
Nov. 30: IMG, 86-69
Dec. 1: No. 2 Columbus, 89-61
Dec. 8: No. 5 Link Academy, 71-59
Dec. 9: No. 7 AZ Compass Prep, 58-46
Dec. 21: No. 12 Archbishop Stepinac, 95-55
Dec. 22: No. 4 Paul VI, 69-62
Dec. 23: No. 6 Long Island Lutheran, 73-59
Jan. 6: No. 20 Gonzaga, 93-51
Jan. 12: No. 15 Oak Hill, 80-50
Jan. 13: No. 10 Brewster, 91-58
Jan. 14: No. 3 Prolific Prep, 76-71
