Well, maybe not exactly a true National Championship, but the Boys to Men Academy of Chicago won the National Christian High School Invitational Tournament March 9-11 in Erie, PA. Many of the top prep schools in the country attended and played in this tournament. It's hard to find any information about the tournament, but here is a mention in the Chicago Sun Times--

They beat Harmony Prep of Cincinnati. Xavier Crawford played a little in the championship game and scored 4 points. Thijin Moses was their leading scorer with 19 points (the article above says 21 points, but the box score below says 19?). Manual Cass, who dropped out of school at Carbondale and transferred to Boys to Men, scored 10 points. And Josh Tabb, who is also from Carbondale high school, and who failed to qualify to go to SIU, scored 12 for Harmony Prep. Here is a box score lifted from a Rivals.com page (you have to know the Harmony Prep players by first name to figure out their scoring)--
