Preseason preview: 20 more Indiana high school girls basketball teams to know

I write (and say) the same thing every year, but there are a lot of talented teams in Indiana — too many to cover in a single story (class-by-class or otherwise). Let's take a look at 20 other teams from around the state. 3A: Angola (15-8, 3A) The Hornets have a Junior Indiana All-Star candidate with Kendall VanderWal. The 5-8 guard averaged 19.2 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.5 steals last season, and is part of a lineup composed almost entirely of 2028 prospects: Kendall Holman (8.3 ppg, 7.1 rpg), Stella Stockamp (9.4 ppg, 4.5 rpg), Ella Savick (7.3 ppg) and Hadleigh Pocock (4 ppg). Sophomores Brynlee Knox and Avery Judson saw some varsity minutes last year and are expected to step into expanded roles. 1A: Barr-Reeve (12-9, 1A) Replacing workhorse Josie Knepp and establishing a more consistent offense are the top priorities facing the Vikings. The returning experience should help. Paighton Parsons, Cadence Burch and Shelby Dobson were all good for 7-9 points and three-plus rebounds per game, and Lilly Lottes and Shay Knepp were both solid within their roles. Evelyn Wright, Avery Wittmer and Shaylah Moffett are newcomers expected to step into prominent roles for Barr-Reeve, which

Snap judgments from first week of high school football sectional play

Here are 10 snap judgments from the first week of high school football sectional games: >>> South Putnam sends a message: How about that performance on Friday night at Cascade? In front of 3,500 fans, Ty Benton took the first play from scrimmage and went 66 yards for a touchdown to set the tone for second-ranked South Putnam’s 56-33 win over No. 7 Cascade. Benton is really good, as his seven touchdowns and 278 rushing yards might indicate. But the overall depth and strength of that South Putnam team is what is most impressive. Not to say there won’t be other 2A teams that can give the Eagles a tough battle, but it is going to take a heck of an effort to knock them out. It won’t happen the next two weeks. >>> All or nothing: Cardinal Ritter turned the tables on Covenant Christian. Three weeks after a 21-6 loss to the Warriors, Ritter won a 22-21 thriller in double overtime to knock out Covenant Christian in Class 2A Sectional 37 at Roncalli. The game was tied 0-0 at halftime and 14-14 at the end of regulation. After both teams were blanked in the first overtime session, Covenant Christian
