Miss Basketball and Gatorade Player of the Year

[AN96]

Miss Basketball goes to Alexis Conaway from MOC -Floyd Valley

Congrats to two great players. Any thoughts on the early favorites for next year's honors?

Are these only awarded to seniors?

It doesn't say that it has to be a senior but they all seem to be. Here is a list of all of them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iowa_Miss_Basketball , I would bet that they also have to play more than 8 games on the year but it doesn't say that either.

Kind of silly then. Theres been a couple of instances where juniors shouldve won. Remmerde and jurgenson come to mind.

I will go out on a limb and call it right now...Elle Ruffridge wins it in 2017....barring anything unforeseen.

 

[AN96]

I would say that is a pretty safe bet at this point. No clear favorites at this point for next year or am I missing something? Lot of good players in that class though.

AFter watching the finals....I will go with Schaban from Harlan.

Nothing against those that have won it but the gatorade player of the year award is a joke. Way to biased towards the big schools and the list has some pretty notable omissions. http://www.gatorade.com/poy/winners.aspx?sportcode=GK
