Hartville is the most overwhelming team in the area. It's somehow flying under the radar.

Hartville might not have a five-star recruit on its roster or four Division I players in its starting lineup, but it's still a state championship team that is somehow flying under the radar.

And they don't mind. They'll beat you anyway.

Hartville showed what makes it the most-overwhelming team in southwest Missouri in a 76-20 beatdown of Houston on Saturday in the first round of the 2020 Blue and Gold Tournament.

Overwhelming ball pressure defensively turned into easy buckets offensively. The Eagles forced 32 turnovers while holding Houston to two points in the first quarter and three in the third.
