INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana High School Athletic Association has announced the selection of 17 senior student-athletes for six scholarships.

The scholarships recognize and honor the legacies of legends and leaders of Indiana such as the Bobby and Kathy Cox Post-Secondary Scholarship, the David Cranfill Truehearted Teammate Award, Amy Hasbrook Family Leadership Award, the Lee Lonzo Champions Together Post-Secondary Scholarship, and the Sparks Foundation Post-Secondary Scholarship.

Switzerland County senior Courtney Higgins was selected as a recipient of a Bobby and Kathy Cox Scholarship.
