JEFFERSONVILLE – Hoosier Hills Conference champion Jeffersonville
and New Albany each have two players on this season’s All-HHC first team.
Red Devil senior guard Jhala Henry and Jeff junior guard Jacinta
Gibson have both earned spots on the squad. They helped Jeff win the outright
HHC title with a perfect 7-0 conference record. It was the Red Devils’ first
outright HHC crown since their state championship season of 2011.
Jeff ended up with a 16-8 overall record as its season concluded
with a 44-34 loss to Bedford North Lawrence in the Class 4A Floyd Central
Sectional semifinals Feb. 3.
The Bulldogs’ two representatives on the All-Hoosier Hills first team
are senior guard Marissa Jones and senior forward Chyna Anthony. Anthony has
signed a national letter of intent to play basketball next season at NCAA
Division I Northern Kentucky University.
Both players aided New Albany to a 15-7 overall mark and a
third-place finish in the HHC standings with a 5-2 conference record. The
Bulldogs’ campaign ended in the Class 4A Floyd Central Sectional semis Feb. 3
in a 59-47 setback to Jennings County.
The rest of the All-HHC first team includes Bedford’s Jorie Allen
and Kennedy Bunch, Seymour’s Lauren James and Kayla Griffin, Jennings County’s
Sidney Gerkin and Columbus East’s Britney Ballard.
