Indiana girls basketball state championship-winning coach given two-game suspension

Two years ago, South Knox (IN) won its only state championship in school history when the girls basketball team won the Class 2A championship. To kick off the 2026-27 season, however, the Spartans will be without their head coach. Brian Haenchen of the IndyStar and Kyle Sokeland of the Courier and Press reported on Wednesday, Nov. 11, that Hollie Anson-Eaves received the two-game suspension for violating the Indiana High School Athletic Association's “undue influence” policy. In addition to the suspension, the program has also been placed on probation for the year. The IndyStar and Courier Press received an email from South Knox Superintendent Jeff Cochren confirming the news and stating the violation occurred in May. Two months later, the IHSAA informed South Knox of the "potential for a violation" and was informed that they needed to respond. The administration responded with a written letter in August and on Nov. 5 received the punishment. Per the IHSAA bylaws, Rule 20-1 prohibits coaches and schools to recruit or attempt to recruit student-athletes under the use of “undue influence” — that being the encouragement or inducing that player to attend a school solely for athletic-related reasons. Anson-Eaves served the first of her two-game

Senior seldomly comes off field for Bloomington South football

BLOOMINGTON — Jonathan Winstead got a late break on the football season. Luckily for Bloomington South, the senior gets up to speed rather quickly. The excuse was a good one, as Winstead patrolled center field for the Panthers' state runner-up baseball team, which finished its season at Victory Field on June 20. He had to wash the bad taste of that loss out of his mouth, then got to work earning his spot on offense as a returning wide receiver. But instead of backing up the quarterback position again, head coach Gabe Johnson decided one of his best ballhawks could help out on the defensive side as well. His speed also worked well as a return man on punts. "I love it. I don't want to be off the field," Winstead said. "I would play every single play if I could. But the thing is, we've got depth and we've got other guys who deserve to be out here. They work hard for their reps, too. "So it's nice to have that depth so I can take step back and know that Kevin (Reeves) at cornerback has my back and when I'm on offense, Mayson (Lewis) is at X and

More Indiana high schools are taking learning to the workplace

Every Tuesday, Suriah Pinner will wake up, get dressed and head to school at Providence Cristo Rey on the south side of Indianapolis. But the high school junior doesn’t go to class. Instead, she gets on a bus to Carmel, where she’ll work for about six hours in the accounting department at Integrity Fiber , a paper and recycling company. Providence Cristo Rey places all of its students into an internship, where they work one day a week during school hours. Accounting is not Pinner’s dream job. She wants to go to medical school and eventually, become a general surgeon. But she likes getting to explore a different path and learn what a professional role might look like for her. “Now I get to see a different range of options, and really weigh what’s good for me and what’s not,” the 17-year-old said. In a few years, it’s likely more Indianapolis students will be getting work experience. Indiana recently changed its high school graduation requirements to encourage students to think about what’s next for them after high school — whether it’s college, public service or employment. State officials say these changes make it possible for more schools to think creatively

Lillie Graves has a chance at Indiana Miss Basketball history this season

LAFAYETTE — There is no higher individual honor in Indiana high school girls basketball than winning the Miss Basketball award. Handed out to the state’s top performing senior, the list of recipients in the 50-year history include multiple future college and WNBA stars. Amazingly, though, nobody from a high school in Lafayette city limits has won the prestigious honor. That could change this winter. McCutcheon is home to Lillie Graves , and she is an early frontrunner for the award in her senior season. It doesn’t take long to discover why. Rated a four-star recruit and ranked 60th nationally by ESPN, the Virginia Tech commit has become a prolific talent. She averaged 17.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 3.3 steals per game last season on 47% shooting from the field for the Class 4A semi-state runner-up Mavericks , while also shooting a career-best 33% from behind the arc. More: Top returning 2026-27 girls basketball teams from Lafayette area Graves is also likely to break the Tippecanoe County scoring record set by Lafayette Jeff’s Maya Layton last year. Layton finished her career with 2,044 points, while Graves was at 1,565 before this season began — 479 points off. She has
