Wow!!! I wish I could've been their for that one..Sounds like the Tornadoes are trying to get ready for a state title run.. I saw where Christian Brothers Mo. Only lost to Memphis Hamilton by 4..Maybe UC can pull the stunner against them boys..Nevertheless it will be a good experience for them..Good job guys winning against a quality opponent.

Here is a capsule for CBC per semoball...

 

Coach: Justin Tatum

 

4-3 * St. Louis

 

Showdown: First appearance

 

Notes: Defending state Class 5 champs beat Jackson 75-66 in quarterfinal and won final in overtime 86-77 over Hickman to finish 25-7 last season. ... Lost top scorer in 6-foot-7 Jordan Barnett who had 43 points, 20 rebounds in championship game. He now plays at Texas. ... Return starting point guard Jordan Barnes. The junior averaged 15 points and nearly 5 assists last year. He has offers to play at Arkansas State, Indiana State, IUPUI and Missouri State. ... CBC has losses at Chaminade (81-59), Memphis Hamilton (66-64) and Helias (58-55) while beating Borgia (67-66). ... CBC is ranked 10th in Class 5 of the latest Missouri Coaches Associations rankings.

 

Saw a preview about this team in StLtoday saying that Barnes and  Christian Willis (6-2 JR.) return from the state championship team to form one the best backcourts in the state...They added Kenny Lesley (6-7 SR.) who transferred in from another Missouri team. They also have a freshman, Kale Catchings (6-5) that is contributing...The early season record is a little deceiving. They had a couple players out with injuries and a kid just now getting on the team after playing for their state champion football team...Also saw a preview for a tourney they are playing in coming up in Jan. telling about college offers...Jordan Barnes ( Indiana State, Missouri State, IUPUI)...Kenny Lesley (Northern Colorado, Eastern Illinois)...Christian Willis (Evansville, San Jose St.)...
