Schwieterman earns underclass all-state
Jay County sophomore among 15 recipients for large schools
She was a nominee for player of the week twice.
Then she set the program’s single-game scoring record.
A short time later she was a first team all-conference selection.
Now, a Patriot has been honored among the best in the state.
Renna Schwieterman, a Jay County High School sophomore, was named large school underclass all-state Tuesday by the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association in conjunction with Franciscan Health Sports Medicine.
IBCA member head coaches nominate players, and from there a panel of 20 coaches — 16 from the regional areas, three district representatives and the committee chair — reviews the nominations and votes.
The IBCA honors 15 seniors and 15 underclass players as “Supreme 15,” then names 15 senior and 15 underclass all-state players for both small and large schools. An additional 180 players — 90 seniors and 90 underclass — are given honorable mention.
Schwieterman, a 5-foot, 10-inch, forward with a five NCAA Division I scholarship offers, led the Patriot girls basketball team to a 19-4 record, including a perfect 6-0 mark in Allen County Athletic Conference play as well as the ACAC tournament championship.
She averaged 18.2 points per game, which was tops on the team, and her 6.0 rebounds per game were second. She also posted a team-best 3.8 assists per game and was third on the team in steals.
Schwieterman had eight games this season of 20 or more points, and three of more than 30. She poured in a school-record 43 points in a Jan. 23 win against Southern Wells to break Shelby Caldwell’s mark of 41 points set Dec. 11, 2018.
During a four-game span from Jan. 16 to 28, Schwieterman totaled 133 points (33.3 PPG), including her record-breaking performance as well as a 37-point effort Jan. 25 when the Patriots upset fourth-ranked Norwell at home.
On Feb. 16, she was given first team all-ACAC honors for the second consecutive season.
Schwieterman has scored 783 points through her first two seasons for an average of 17 points per game. She is on pace to score 1,566 points, which would break Shannon Freeman’s program record of 1,458 for a career.
