Aaron Rowe, 4-star 2025 point guard, commits to Missouri

Aaron Rowe is staying home.

One of the top point guards in the Class of 2025, Rowe announced on Tuesday he is committing to the University of Missouri.

Rowe, a 6-foot-1, 165-pound junior at Father Tolton Regional Catholic in Columbia, Mo., is the No. 18 overall prospect in the Class of 2025 and the fourth-best point guard according to the On3 Industry Rankings. 247Sports ranks Rowe as the No. 20 overall prospect in his class and the fourth-best point guard.

Rowe, who transferred from Father Tolton to Link Academy for his sophomore year before transferring back to Tolton this year, narrowed his decision to finalists Missouri, Tennessee and Kansas State, but opted to stay in Columbia and play for the Tigers.

“That’s my hometown, where I grew up," Rowe told On3's Joe Tipton when breaking down his three finalists. "It was really cool visiting there. I got to take some pictures, and it was really cool connecting with the coaches and getting to know them.”

Rowe's pledge gives Missouri basketball coach Dennis Gates a great start on his 2025 recruiting class after signing one of the best classes in college basketball for 2024.

The Tigers' five-man recruiting haul for 2024 ranks fourth nationally in 247Sport's team rankings.

All five of Missouri's signees are ranked in the top 100 by 247Sports: Arkansas small forward Annor Boateng (No. 41), Overtime Elite 7-foot center Peyton Marshall (No. 57), Florida small forward Marcus Allen (No. 63), Link Academy point guard T.O. Barrett (No. 88) and Texas 7-3 center Trent Burns (No. 100).
