Girls High School Basketball

4A All-Idaho girls basketball team loaded with talent. See who made the cut.

Note: The All-Idaho teams are chosen by each classification’s coaches. The Idaho Statesman hosts the voting process and publishes the results.

PLAYER OF THE YEAR: SADIE LOTT, BONNEVILLE

Why she is player of the year: Lott was the best player on the best team. She averaged 17.1 points and 2.7 steals to lead Bonneville (27-0) to a perfect season. She is a two-time all-area player of the year and Bonneville had a 48-2 record in that time.

Coach’s comment: “Sadie was the most difficult player to stop, try to contain or try to match in intensity. She could score, get others involved and set the tone for the whole game,” Bonneville coach Ryan Erikson said.

What others are saying: “Hands down the best 4A player in the state. She is a great two-way player,” Bishop Kelly coach Derek McCormick said.

What’s next: She has signed to play volleyball for University of Providence in Great Falls, Mont.

LEXI BULL, CENTURY

The 6-foot forward did everything for the Diamondbacks en route to a second-place finish at state. She averaged 18.8 points, 13.2 rebounds, 3.9 blocks, 3.4 steals and 3.1 assists in one of the most complete seasons in the state.

AMARI WHITING, BURLEY

A freshman point guard who already has college offers, she will be running the show for Burley for a long time. She led 4A in scoring at 20.4 points per game and dominated the defensive end with 5.5 steals.

TENLEIGH SMITH, BLACKFOOT

Since starting her freshman year, the junior has provided a stable presence at the point for Blackfoot for three years. She averaged 12.9 points and had some of the best floor vision in the state with her 5.3 assists.

HADLEY HUMPHREYS, BLACKFOOT

The 5-10 center manned the middle for Blackfoot as only a sophomore. She continually dominated the paint and posed matchup problems, nearly averaging a double-double with 11.8 points and 9.0 rebounds a night.

COACH OF THE YEAR: RYAN ERIKSON, BONNEVILLE

He led the Bees to their first perfect season (27-0) in program history in his first year.
