Due to my extensive coverage of the 2010 Prime Time Shootout, I have not been able to post a National High School Top 25 since February 9th. Despite the two-plus weeks in between my last top 25 and this one, there are actually not that many changes, as the top nine remains in the same order for the third consecutive time.
