The University of Missouri has announced the signings of point guard Aaron Rowe (Columbia, Mo.) and power forward Nicholas Randall (St. Louis, Mo.) to the men’s basketball program for 2025.Â
Rowe, a product of Tolton Catholic High School in Columbia, is ranked as high as 53rd in the various recruiting services across the country. He will join the Tigers program after playing prep ball at both Tolton High School and Link Academy.Â
In 2023, Rowe helped Link Academy to the 2023 GEICO National Championship. With the Tolton Trail Blazers, Rowe is a two-time (2022 and 2024) Class 4 MBCA All-State selection. As a freshman, he helped lead Tolton to a runner-up state finish.Â
The signing of Rowe was swiftly followed by that of Randall, a three-time state champion with the Vashon High School Wolverines in the St. Louis area. As a junior, Randall was named as the Player of the Year in Class 4, averaging 10.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 1.3 blockers per game.  For his senior season, after joining AZ Compass Prep in Chandler, Arizona, Randall is ranked as high as the #117 recruit in the nation.
Missouri’s 2025 recruiting class is ranked #24 nationally, following final marks of #27 in 2023 and #5 in 2024. Â
