SPORTS WITHOUT CHARM
It was a banner year for high school basketball in the Baltimore area. Three Baltimore City programs won state titles (Dunbar, Lake Clifton, Patterson), and many local talents are going on to play college basketball at the next level. To conclude the local season, Charm City Finest and Tunnel Vision Sports have organized the 1st Annual…
When I ran my own Ravens blog, I found that draft coverage was surprisingly fun, and brought in a lot of traffic. I would put together my own mock drafts and make a big board of players that the Ravens reported interest in. One other popular feature was what I called a “mock draft survey,”…
The high school basketball regular season is coming to a close in Baltimore, and many of the top programs are now looking forward to their respective postseason tournaments. Public schools finish their seasons this week and await the announcement of the regional playoff matchups for the MPSSAA state tournament. Privates brace for the MIAA and…
It has been a crazy seven days in the Baltimore high school basketball scene, with our top three teams all falling victim to upset losses. Dunbar jumps back to the top spot this week, but there truly is no top team in the Baltimore area this season. The Poets actually dropped a decision on Tuesday night…
After an awesome week of basketball in Baltimore, we have major shake-ups in this week’s BSR Top 15. The Basketball Academy was three days of great high school hoops action, as former #1 Dunbar fell, and Baltimore enjoyed several top-notch contests.

The Poets defeated then-No. 2 Patterson on Friday night, by a 64-55 score. With the win, Dunbar extended their active winning streak to 20 consecutive games,…
Welcome to the fifth installment of BSR’s weekly top 15 rankings. Mount St. Joseph’s continues to hold the top spot in the rankings, but after their loss to underachieving Calvert Hall on Friday evening, the Gaels’ perch atop Baltimore has begun to dip. I know it feels like I say it every week, but now…
Welcome to the fourth installment of BSR’s weekly top 15 rankings. This week sees Mount St. Joseph’s keeping the top spot in the rankings, despite picking up their first loss of the season in a holiday tournament. In fact, several of the metro area’s top teams lost while participating in tournaments over the break, and…
Before we dive into the rankings, I’d like to apologize for the delay in posting them. I decided it would be best to let the holiday fervor die down before posting. The top teams in this weeks’ rankings remain virtually unchanged, but the middle and lower parts of the top 15 will see a lot…
