Missouri Boys High School basketball rankings by class 12/05/2018

Here's my first meaningful power rating estimate for Missouri boys high school basketball teams by class.  I have posted all five classes and non-classified teams so this is a long blog.  I will probably post by class in the future.   The class and district are listed below for each team with the current power rating.

Power rankings are based upon both head-to-head competition and comparative scores.  The difference between power ratings would be the estimated spread for any particular school match-up.  I still have a few top teams, like Webster Groves, that have not played a game and who's rating is based upon last year.

My algorithm this year started with last year's rating and then will be adjusted throughout the 2018-2019 game schedule.  What I am finding is that ratings vary slightly from year to year, depending upon returnees, but that overall, good programs beget good teams year after year.  So while Webster lost Ramey and Gordon, they still have a pretty strong group coming back due to the size of the talent pool, good coaching and a strong feeder program.  Other than Webster Groves, just about everyone else has played a few games.  The ratings will firm up by the first of the year.
