Knights pick up receiving votes in latest IBCA rankings

Norwell picked up some receiving votes in the latest IBCA poll for girls’ basketball.

The rankings were released Sunday night, and represent Indiana’s one-class poll, not by four classes.

After back-to-back losses to No. 10 Homestead and No. 16 Northridge, the Knights fell from their No. 19 spot two weeks ago.

Despite the two losses, Norwell has wins over Warsaw and Northrop who also received votes.

The top five in order include Hamilton Southeastern, Bedford North Lawrence, Lawrence Central, Center Grove and Northeast 8 foe Columbia City.

The Knights will see a handful of ranked opponents throughout the season including the Eagles and No. 7 Snider down the road.

Knights get receiving votes in preseason IBCA boys poll

Norwell earned some votes in the preseason boys’ basketball IBCA poll Sunday night.

The rankings group together the entire state as a one-class system, rather than by its four divisions.

The Knights, who finished last season at 22-4 at NE8 Conference champs, lost the majority of its team by graduation from last year. This preseason poll indicates some belief in the new squad this year.

In the top five in order goes from Ben Davis, Kokomo, Lawrence North, Attuckus and Brownsburg.
