INDIANAPOLIS - Nearly 500 student-athletes have earned some level of recognition in this year's IBCA Academic All-State program.
On Monday, the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association announced that 81 high school seniors (41 boys and 40 girls) have been chosen as First-Team Academic All-State for the 2024-25 school year.
In addition, 197 more boys and 218 more girls were recognized as honorable mention.
IBCA-member head coaches from schools across the state may nominate their senior student-athletes who meet criteria that include a 3.50 GPA or higher on a 4.0 scale, a class rank in the upper 25 percent of one's class and either an SAT score of 1100 (on the reading and math sections) or an ACT composite score of 24.
"The quality of these student-athletes shows that success in academics and success in athletics are not separate entities," said IBCA executive director Marty Johnson. "Rather, in many cases, a player's success in the classroom directly contributes to his or her success on the floor."
Local Honorees include:
Boys Honorable Mention Academic All-State
- Cooper Todd, Switzerland County
- Braydon Burris, Rising Sun
Girls Honorable Mention Academic All-State
- Ashlyn Covington, Switzerland County
