The 2023-2024 Mr. and Miss Basketball finalists have been released by the TSSAA.
During a ceremony at MTSU’s Murphy Center on March 18, the winners for each class will be announced. That ceremony will start at 5:30 p.m.
This is the 40th year that the Mr. and Miss Basketball Awards have been given out.
Finalists and the winners were selected by a statewide committee of sportswriters. They selected those winners based on what they accomplished during the regular season and their character as well as academics off the court. Players were nominated by members of the media as well as coaches from around the state.
