INA Announces 2011 All-State Selections for Boys Basketball
The Iowa Newspaper Association announced its 2011 All-State Boys Basketball teams for Class 4A, 3A, 2A and 1A Tuesday, naming Cedar Rapids Jefferson senior Jarrod Uthoff as Mr. Basketball.
At 6-foot-8, Uthoff helped Jefferson to the Class 4A state tournament for a second straight year, leading the state with a 26.2 scoring average despite facing constant double and triple teams defensively. He also averaged 11.2 rebounds, shooting 54.8 percent from the field and 84.6 from the free-throw line. Uthoff, who will play college basketball at the University of Wisconsin, transferred to Jefferson his sophomore year from an Iowa Valley High School.
