1A Division II All-Idaho girls basketball team | 2020
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: KYLIE WOOD, CAREY
Why she is player of the year: The 5-6 junior point guard led the Panthers to a second-place finish at state, averaging 19.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.2 steals and 2.1 assists.
Coach’s comment: “She is a student of the game and spends countless hours watching film. Every camp that she attends in the summer, she comes home with pages full of notes and she studies these notes throughout the year,” Carey coach Merrilee Sears said.
What others are saying: “We prided ourselves on our defense only allowing 28 points a game. In the semifinals at state, Kylie scored 27 points on us, the only player this year that scored over 20 on us,” Tri-Valley coach Jeff Springer said.
What’s next: She’ll gun for her third straight trip to the Idaho Center next year.
MADALYN PERMANN, ROCKLAND
The four-year starter capped her career with 1,578 points and an elusive state title. The 5-6 guard dominated both ends of the court for the Bulldogs, racking up 17.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.9 steals and 3.6 assists per game.
HARLEY JACKSON, SHO-BAN
The leading scorer in all classifications (27.1 ppg) was in range once she got past half court. But the 5-2 senior guard was no one-trick pony. She added 5.3 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 3.3 steals per game. She even had 10 assists during a 47-point game.
KYNLEE THORNTON, LIGHTHOUSE CHRISTIAN
The Lions could get out and run behind the 5-10 junior forward, who also ran the point and played shooting guard. She averaged 18.8 points and 11.1 rebounds. But she was also her league’s defensive player of the year with 3.1 blocks a game.
EMMA HOLLON, TRI-VALLEY
The 5-5 junior point guard ensured the Titans’ offense ran smoothly and led Tri-Valley to its best finish at state (third place). She kept everyone involved, racking up 4.1 assists a game while adding 11.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.8 steals.
COACH OF THE YEAR: VERN NELSON, ROCKLAND
He led the Bulldogs (23-3) to their first team championship in any sport this winter.
