BEDFORD – Bedford North Lawrence senior Chloe Spreen has been named one of five finalists for the coveted 2024 Miss Basketball award.
Spreen, on her way to play for Alabama, averaged 20.9 points and 6.9 rebounds while leading the Stars to a 20-5 record and a 13th consecutive Class 4A sectional championship. She finished second on the program’s scoring list with 1,869 career points. She was recently selected to the IBCA’s Supreme 15 All-State team. Spreen was also a driving force for BNL’s 2023 Class 4A state championship.
Other finalists include Noblesville’s Reagan Wilson (an Iowa State recruit who averaged 16.1 points last season and scored 1,363 career points), Fort Wayne Snider’s Jordyn Poole (a Purdue recruit who averaged 16.9 points and totaled 1,368 career points), Jennings County’s Juliann Woodard (Michigan State recruit who averaged 17.3 points as a senior and set school career records with 1,755 points and 1,111 rebounds) and Indian Creek’s Faith Wiseman (en route to Indiana after averaging 18.2 points and 11.9 rebounds).
BNL’s previous Miss Basketball winners include Marla Inman (1992) and Jorie Allen (2019). If Spreen is named the winner, BNL would match Warsaw for the most Miss Basketballs in state history. The winner will be announce on Friday.
