Junior Jeannie Boehm, who is the centerpiece of the New Trier High School girls basketball team, has earned first-team all-state honors by the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA).
The 6-foot-3 center, who helped the 31-2 Trevians to a third-place finish at the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) state tournament on Feb. 7. averaged a double double this season: 15.1 points and 10.2 rebounds.
Boehm was a second-team all-state pick in 2014.
Three of her teammates also were recognized. Junior point guard Haley Greer and junior wing Kathryn Pedi were third-team selections, while senior Jackie Welch was special mention all-state.
Meanwhile, two of Regina’s top players also claimed all-state honors. Senior guard Maeve Degnan was named to the fourth team, while fellow senior Maggie Palmer received special mention. Degnan averaged 17.3 points per game for the 18-11 Panthers. Palmer averaged 11.1 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game.
Glenbrook South senior center Ashley Oldshue, who will play at Emory University, also made special mention.
