(Versailles, Ind.) - South Ripley High School's all-time leading scorer will play college basketball at IU East. 

Cole Henry's decision was announced today after he signed his letter of intent at a special signing ceremony. 

Henry became South Ripley's all-time leading scorer last month, passing Cody Samples (1,429) who previously held the record since 2021. He also holds the South Ripley record for career rebounds, and the school's single-game scoring record after putting up 46 against Milan earlier this season.
