Missouri Class Three Boys Basketball Final Ratings - 3/25/2020

It was a magical season for the Cardinal Ritter Lions.  The Lions had close losses to Vashon, Mehlville, CBC, Chicago Thornton and a couple top nationally ranked teams.  How good were they?  Well, good enough to win the state championship game by 56 points and put away the 4th ranked team, Blair Oaks, by 14 in the semi-final.  A tight-knit team that plays for Team Ramey in the AAU season that was so good that Illyass "Biscuit" Harris, a starting point guard at Marquette and transfer to Ritter, had trouble getting playing time.  Led by the dynamic trio of Mario Fleming, Gary Clark and Luther Burden, this team was unstoppable at times.  Ritter could have competed in the final for any class in the state.

Runner-up Charleston was no slouch and didn't show their true colors in the 56 point blow-out final.  Behind Charleston was Trinity, Blair Oaks and Father Tolton, all who were within a point or two of each other.

Quite a lot of basketball talent in class three.  I have put the ratings model through the wringer several times and here's my final ratings.

Enjoy the ratings and stay safe and healthy.
