<p>Before our staff heads into the next phase of our offseason coverage, I wanted to take one last look at the recent Class of ‘26 rankings update. By now folks have likely seen the revamped <em>Top 10</em>, and a good portion of the stock risers. But, there's still some newcomers we've yet to mention. </p>

<p>In this report we'll be taking a look at the newcomers that debuted inside the<em> Top 150</em>. Of the more than 80 prospects that joined in this update, only a select few cracked this part of the rankings. Check out where these six landed in the recent update. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1672711' first='Miguel' last='Torrealba'] - Blue Valley NW, 6'4”, 235, DL</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Torrealba of BVNW made a splash with his debut. The 6-foot-4, 235-pound defensive lineman was the only newcomer that cracked the <em>Top 50</em>. After putting together strong camp performances in June, he picked up <em>D-II</em> offers from <em>Northwest Missouri State</em> and <em>Washburn</em> <em>University. </em>Torrealba joined the rankings at No. 47 overall. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1672705' first='Max' last='Manske'] - St. Thomas Aquinas, 6'8”, 255, OL</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Manske of Aquinas nearly joined Torrealba in the <em>Top 100</em>, but for now we have him at No. 102 overall. He's a rising offensive tackle that should draw plenty of interest from all collegiate levels this season. In a class rich with OL talent, Mankske is the 13th ranked prospect at his position. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1671340' first='Andrew' last='Wolverton'] - Blue Valley NW, 6'1”, 190, DB</p>

<p>Another BVNW Husky that debuted inside the <em>Top 150</em> was [player_tooltip player_id='1671340' first='Andrew' last='Wolverton']. He checked in at No. 132 overall and is the 10th ranked defensive back in the class. Wolverton capped off a nice camp season by posting a 4.56 40-yard dash time, and he also received an offer from <em>Doane University</em>. </p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1641836' first='Alamar' last='Brooks'] - Piper, 6'0”, 180, WR</p>

<p>After first appearing during the <em>Watch List</em> series, Brooks is now being featured as a ranked prospect. The explosive wideout entered the rankings at No. 147 overall and is the 16th ranked receiver in the class.
