(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.

This season, Henry is averaging 22.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 1.3 blocks per game.

He has played a big role in South Ripley's success this season. The Raiders are currently ranked #1 in Class 2A with an undefeated record heading into tonight's matchup at South Dearborn.

Eagle Country 99.3 will have the call starting at 7:10 p.m.
