played with tenacity on both ends of the court in the state title game. On offense, he used his athleticism and reaction time to gather offensive rebounds. Ruffin was also able to right back up a few times, and scored a decent amount of second chance points for the Mountain Lions. He also did pretty well on defense against the Cougars forwards and disrupted some of their shots.
Stats – 15 Points, 11 Rebounds (5 Offensive Rebounds)

If one Mountain Lion is good, then two is even better. Ruffin is a rugged hard core Glue guy that does a ton of stuff not shown in the stat sheet. Remeber him for using his strength to anchor one of the top defenses in the state.

Ruffin is one of the rare players that can dominate a high school game. He rebounded and defended at a high level. The elite Glue Guy arrives as a top 100 player in his first rankings appearance.

The State Finals was the culmination of a playoff run that saw Ruffin take his game to another level. He was a terror on the glass, providing the Mountain Lions with another interior rebounder. He defended everyone, showing some of the most defensive versatility of any player in the tournament. Behind his toughness, grit and IQ, Sierra Vista captured the 4A crown.

If you love winning basketball, then you’re going to want to have Ruffin on your team. He did a little bit of everything for his squad. He defended every position on the floor, and had a knack for coming up with what seemed like 30/70 type rebounds. It’s fair to say he was the ultimate connector for his team, helping Sierra Vista take home the 4A crown.
