Congratulations to Ava Smith and Ty Carr for their selection to the Iowa Basketball Coaches Association’s Academic All State team for 2022. This is a great honor to their commitment not only as a basketball player, but also to the commitment they have shown to their educational and academic excellence as well. Many consider this honor team to have the toughest selection process of all-state honors. Ava was recognized at halftime of a Class 1A semifinal game on March 4. Ty will be recognized on March 10 during a 4A semifinal game.
