Allison Mitchell’s high school career is over, but it’s still generating highlights.

The South Point Lady Pointers 5-foot-9 senior forward capped her career by being named special mention on Monday to the Associated Press Division II All-Ohio basketball team.

A four-year starter, Mitchell averaged 20 points and 8.5 rebounds as she led the Lady Pointers to a 16-6 record and a fourth sectional title in as many seasons.

Mitchell was a first team All-Southeast District selection and first team on the Coaches’ District 13 team. She is the district’s representative to the annual North/South All-Star Game.

Southeast District Player of the Year Erica Dawson of Marietta — who averaged 31.5 points a game — was one three girls named Player of the Year.

The other players honored were Kelley Austria of Dayton Carroll and Amanda Cahill of Clyde.
