Fab 15: Pendleton Heights, Franklin Central headline preseason area rankings

We continue our Central Indiana girls basketball deep-dive with our preseason Fab 15. There are a couple clear preseason frontrunners entering the season, but the transfer chaos and arrival of a very strong 2030 class has this field looking as deep as ever. Let's get to ranking! 1. Pendleton Heights (22-4, 4A sectional champions) The Arabians have their centerpiece in Northwestern-bound forward Adah Hupfer (20.5 ppg, 13 rpg), and a strong cast of returners that includes Sami Brunk (6.4 ppg, 2.9 apg), Ellie Warfel (5.6 ppg) and Grace Lee (3.8 ppg). That in itself would have registered this team among the best in the state. But then they added 2028 Fishers transfers Ella Burleson and Reagan Reiff, and expectations were really elevated. Burleson, a 5-8 guard, averaged 8.2 points, 2.4 assists and a steal across 22 games last season, while Reiff, a 6-foot guard, clocked 8.5 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 1.9 apg and 1.3 spg. They're both considered top-50 recruits by PrepGirlsHoops Indiana (Reiff is top-25) and will be immediate contributors (obviously) with their new team. Newcomers Jada McGraw, Justus Ellis, Mallory Schug, Zy Larry and Sadie Rauh will add depth for Pendleton Heights, which has a schedule that includes Sneakers

Penn, Northridge headline area prep girls basketball teams to watch

It's time, believe it or not, for yet another edition of Hoosier Hysteria on the girls' side. Indiana high school girls basketball teams began games on Nov. 2 after starting "official" practice back on Oct. 19. Teams will have their sights set on the ultimate prize in a trip to Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis for the IHSAA state finals on Feb. 27, 2027. Sectionals are slated for Feb. 2-6, with regionals Feb. 13 and semi-states Feb. 20. More: Lily Scholl named 2025-26 Tribune Girls Basketball Player of the Year Bremen and Elkhart Christian Academy made it the furthest of any South Bend Tribune area teams a season ago. The Lions lost 66-57 to Oak Hill in Class 2A semi-state title game, while Eagles fell 55-33 to Fremont in a Class 1A semi-state title tilt. Bremen, though, graduated their top three players from a 24-3 squad. Northridge lost in the semi-state semifinal round to end last season. The Raiders knocked off Warsaw, whom they had lost to during the regular season, to win the sectional, beat Valparaiso to win the regional before a 76-59 loss to McCutcheon in a Class 4A semi-state game. Penn easily won a Class 4A sectional title

Roncalli students are “Called to Moore,” the theme for the 2026-27 school year

A yearly school theme plays a major role in motivating students and building a tight-knit community. Schools center their themes on students’ current situations and what they feel needs to be implemented. Officer David Moore, who had such an evident impact on the Roncalli community, was an IMPD officer who did what he did best: protecting and helping others. Unfortunately, his life was cut short in the line of duty, and he tragically passed away on January 26, 2011.

Yorktown volleyball falls to Center Grove in 4A semi-state championship

NORTH VERNON, Ind. — Yorktown volleyball faced off with two revenge-minded foes in the IHSAA Class 4A South semi-state bracket at Jennings County High School on Saturday, Oct. 31. One team was denied revenge. The other team got theirs. Yorktown took down Floyd Central in a thrilling reverse sweep (21-25, 20-25, 25-15, 25-18, 15-10) to end the Highlanders' season in the semi-state semifinals for a third-straight year on Saturday morning. Later in the evening, Yorktown took on Center Grove, who was able to avenge last year's regional championship loss to the Tigers with a 3-1 (18-25, 28-26, 25-17, 25-19) victory in the semi-state championship. More: How Daleville, Delta, Yorktown cross country runners performed at IHSAA state finals "I love how they played and how much fight they played with," Yorktown coach Stephanie Bloom said. "That speaks to their character. At the end of the day, who they are as people matters more, and I'm going to stand firm all day long on our culture and our kids, and so I'm really proud of them." The 2026 season marked Yorktown's 10th-straight playing up in Class 4A due to the success factor. In that decade, the Tigers have reached the Class 4A
