"Over a two-week period in February, fans submitted video-game-style ratings for the top athletes in Boston under the age of 25, assigning them a number on a scale of 1 to 100 based on where they could peak in their careers."
"Patriots quarterback Drake Maye beating out cornerback Christian Gonzalez by 0.1 percent for the No. 1 spot. In most cases, there's a clear-cut winner. But this year featured our closest race yet for the top spot."
NBC Sports Boston conducted its annual '20 Under 25' voting contest to identify the best young athletes in Boston sports. Fans participated over a two-week period in February, rating athletes under age 25 on a scale of 1 to 100 based on their career peak potential. The rating scale ranged from 50 (borderline pro) to 100 (Hall of Fame potential). The contest tallied average votes for each player to compile a ranking of the top 20 Boston athletes under 25. This year's competition was notably competitive, with Patriots quarterback Drake Maye securing the number one position by the narrowest margin, edging out cornerback Christian Gonzalez by just 0.1 percent.
