PREP BASEBALL MISSOURI TEAM RANKINGS

Our rankings are broken up into two divisions: large school and small schools. We classify the 'large' schools as those residing in Class 5 & 6, while the small schools make up the remaining MSHSAA classifications. We rank what we believe to be the top teams in the state at that level, as well as highlighting several 'On Deck' teams.

With two weeks of the season under our belt, our staff is formally updating the state’s team rankings for the first time in 2024, using our vast knowledge of the state across all levels to do so.
