IBCA Girls Hoops Poll for November 10

Below are results of the IBCA girls’ basketball poll for Week 1 of the 2024-25 season (Nov. 10, 2024). The IBCA poll is a “non-class” poll, where teams are voted to a Top 20 regardless of school classification.

There are 22 panelists who vote for the poll — one voter each from the 16 regionals and six at-large voters (two each from IHSAA Districts 1, 2 and 3), including committee chairman Doug Springer of Northridge as a District 1 at-large voter.

Other committee panelists include Kristi Ulrich of Penn, Kelsey Steele of Westfield, Curt Benge of Plainfield and Tyler Choate of Evansville North in Class 4A; Chris Tomcsi of Griffith, Eric Thornton of Norwell, Kaley May of Danville and Adam Dennis of Madison in Class 3A; Tony Scheub of Andrean, Jaidlin Bradshaw of Sheridan, Mark Harper of Parke Heritage and Jared Petersen of Austin in Class 2A; and Katie Collignon of Marquette Catholic, Ryan Chiddister of Union (Modoc), Jason West of Southwestern (Shelby) and Marty Niehaus of Springs Valley in Class A.

The at-large committee members are Springer and Rod Parker of Homestead in District 1, Stacy Mitchell of Warren Central and DeeAnn Ramey of North Central in District 2, and Kevin Moore of East Central and Taylor Sykes of Jeffersonville in District 3.

This poll is released on Sundays throughout the 2024-25 Indiana high school girls’ basketball season. The final poll for the season will be on Feb. 2, 2025, the Sunday following the completion of regular-season games. IHSAA sectional games are scheduled Feb. 4-8, 2025.
