Last weekend, Syracuse basketball coaches conducted their annual Elite Camp, with a variety of talented prospects across numerous recruiting cycles in attendance.
A few days ago, I wrote a separate column detailing some of the high school players who played in this annual event, although my list wasn't meant to be exhaustive.
Typically, we do see some scholarship offers doled out by 'Cuse coaches to some of the participants at the Elite Camp, so I'll monitor that for sure.

In the meantime, Rivals.com this week published its inaugural national rankings of the top-60 prospects in the 2027 class, so I'm going to take a look at which Elite Camp participants made the cut.
I'll also provide separate national rankings for those who were on the Hill last weekend from other recruiting services.
The latest national rankings of four-star prospects who were at the Syracuse basketball Elite Camp.

I just wanted to add a little more here. Another Elite Camp participant was 2027 guard/wing Josh Rivera out of Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, N.Y. While he's not nationally ranked for the time being, that could change.
My good buddy Zach Smart, who is one of the top experts out there covering high school basketball and recruiting in New York City and throughout the Empire State, published a post on his X page not too long ago regarding Rivera. Have a look!
Now 6-7, Josh Rivera of @step_basketball is poised for memorable soph season. Instant offense with floor spacing shooting, purity of vision as a creator, broomstick long arms allows him to sit down on smaller guards and defend multiple positions@CHSAA_NYC @RecruitTheBronx

Brian Reichert, another top-flight writer covering high school hoops in NYC and New York state, also had an excellent piece lately that included some insights on several prospects who were at the recent 'Cuse Elite Camp.
