For the first time ever, High School Football America will be ranking the top high school football players in the country. We start today with the Top 10 quarterbacks in the senior (Class of 2026) and junior (Class of 2027) classes heading into the 2025 high school football season.
Our No. 1 QB in the senior-to-be class is Dia Bell of American Heritage (Plantation, Florida). The Texas-recruit was having an outstanding junior season until he was sidelined with a leg injury during the Patriots’ second round playoff game.
Bell completed over 70-percent of his passes (161-of-228) for nearly 2,600 yards with 29 touchdowns against only six interceptions in 2024. He also averaged over eight yards per carry with touchdowns. For his career, Bell’s tossed 53 touchdowns with only twelve picks.
Despite losing Bell to injury, American Heritage still won the Florida 4A championship, finishing No. 16 in the HSFA 300 national rankings, powered by NFL Play Football.
