2016 NHSI Teams Announced, Rutherford Among Top Prospects

Jacobsen, a South Carolina commit, is one of six Division I recruits on the team. Bingham High, South Jordan, Utah Bingham isn’t filled with stars, but head coach Joe Sato has a reputation as one of the nation’s top high school coaches, and his squad consistently competes at a high level.
