Raymore-Peculiar (or Ray-Pec) is a public high school in the far southeast of the Kansas City, MO metropolitan area. The school historically competed in MSHSAA Class 4, but was reassigned to Class 6 after the 2021 realignment.
History
Though Ray-Pec mostly limited itself to local leagues for much of its history, they began to attend more tournaments beginning around the 2019-20 season. Led by Joel Miles and Brendan Fuller, the team rapidly emerged as a state powerhouse, culminating in its first MSHSAA state title in 2021. Though unable to attend nationals, Ray-Pec's skill was known on the national stage, as they played (and performed well in) many online tournaments during the Covid-19 pandemic. The team was ranked 2nd in a 2021 Missouri-wide postseason team poll. Ray-Pec graduated its whole A team after the 2020-21 season, and is currently rebuilding with a large contingent of sophomores and first-years.
