INDIANAPOLIS – Some career milestones could be celebrated this winter during the high school basketball season.
The Indiana Basketball Coaches Association released Wednesday an updated list of 1,000-point career scorers, and those who are close to reaching the milestone.
Locally, Switzerland County senior forward Cam Craig and South Ripley senior forward Cole Henry eclipsed the 1,000-career point mark last season.
Both will have a chance to break their school’s all-time scoring record.
Craig needs 295 points to surpass Brad Burk as the Pacers’ all-time leading scorer. Burk set the record in 1982 with 1,456 points. Craig currently has 1,162 points.
For Henry, he has a little more work to do to catch Cody Samples, who set the Raiders’ scoring record in 2021 with 1,429 points. Henry enters his senior season with 1,047 points and needs 383 points to break Samples’ record.
Henry’s teammate, Blaine Ward, is 43 points away from becoming the 9th South Ripley player to join the 1,000-point club.
Other local players nearing 1,000 points include Cade Kaiser (Batesville, 847), Carson Pieczonka (East Central, 823), Brody Morris (Rising Sun, 752), Cooper Bobo (Lawrenceburg, 665), and Alyson Peters (Batesville, 738).
The IBCA began compiling a boys' list of 1,000-point scorers at the end of the 1979-80 season. Junior Mannies started an Indiana high school record book at that time, and his initial list of 1,000-point scorers included 357 players. Mannies compiled the list for two more years until passing away in 1983. Gene Milner took over the compilation of the boys' 1,000-point scorers list in 1982-83. Milner, currently the IBCA's annual record book editor and website coordinator, has overseen the boys' 1,000-Point Club listing for the past 42 years.
The IBCA decided to compile a statewide girls' list of 1,000-point scorers in January 2022 when there was an inquiry for both boys' and girls' lists, and no such list was available for girls.
