Mylee Stucki hadn’t even finished her debut season before the rest of the 6A High Country Conference took notice.
The Highland point guard was a first-team selection on the All 6A-High Country Conference team — making her the only freshman among the selections.
Stucki averaged a double-double on the season, posting 15 points and 10 rebounds per game to go along with five steals and four assists per game, helping lead the Rams to a 12-12 record — their first non-losing season in five years.
Stucki wasn’t the only Ram to draw recognition. Juniors Peyton Pieper and Reese Ward both earned honorable mention, giving Highland three players on the full all-district list. Pieper averaged 10 points, three rebounds and two steals per game, while Ward chipped in eight points, three rebounds and two assists per game.
Rigby, which only lost one game all season, led the way with seven selections, including sweeping all four major categories in Player of the Year Kinzley Larsen, Coach of the Year Todd Barber, Defensive Player of the Year Lauren Burnside and 6th Man of the Year Breleigh Youngstrom.
The full teams are listed below. They are chosen by the coaches. The Idaho State Journal just publishes the results.
