Twenty-four Indiana high school seniors have been named winners of 2022 scholarship awards from the Indiana Basketball Coaches Association, it was announced Tuesday (April 26).

The IBCA -- a statewide coaches group with about 2,400 members -- this year is presenting a grant of $750 to each recipient in the names of Marion Crawley, Junior Mannies and Pat Aikman. Through the years, the IBCA has awarded about $760,000 in scholarships to Indiana student-athletes.

"I would like to congratulate you for being selected as a recipient," IBCA executive director Steve

Witty wrote in informing winners of the various selections. "... Thank you for your contributions to Indiana

high school basketball, and best of luck as you move on to the college of your choice." A total of 20 Crawley Scholarships were presented to nine boys' players, 10 girls' players and one student manager

The boys' recipients for 2022 are Jack Ahlbrand of Jasper, Jasper Campbell of Shenandoah, Warren Halbig of Evansville Mater Dei, Cooper Hoog of East Central, Casey McQueen of East Central, Caleb Mergenthal of East Central, Nick Mundy of Mitchell, Isaac Tuma of Hamilton Heights and Dayveon Turner of Indianapolis Arsenal Tech.

He later became the first executive director of the IBCA.

Will Delaney, a boys' player from Wes-Del, was the only winner of Mannies Scholarship for 2022.

Mannies won 311 games as the boys basketball coach at Elwood, Mississinewa, Delphi and other schools. He served as the IBCA Job Placement Director from 1977-83.

Three players -- Carson Brindle of the Gibson Southern boys, Jolie Groves of the Triton girls and Jordan Zody of the Shenandoah boys -- were honored as recipients of the 12th annual Pat Aikman Character and Leadership Awards, named for the former Indiana All-Star game director and former IBCA Coordinator of Special Projects.
